Happy Valentine's Day!

What a day!  Today we loaded up our many Valentine's and headed off to school.  And we had SO many.....280 to be exact!  All four of us brought for the whole school, K-12.  We had a school-wide Valentine Party at 9:30 and then lunch was at 11:30.  I don't think many of the kids were hungry at all. 
They had a super fun day and got lots of goodies.

Trey and his favorite girl, Devin were eating their snacks at their
classroom Valentine Party.
Trey and Hayden....best buds

Makena and Harlee showing some love!

Hannah and Carlie enjoying their party.
My flowers and owl vase from Carl.  He knows how much I love owls so he went and bought the vase at one of the little stores downtown and took it to the florist to have the flowers put in it and have them delivered to me at school.  I was surprised that he put so much effort in it.  He did good :)
I was also surprised when I got home and had this sitting on my doorstep.  It's a little stake that goes in a plant (I wonder how everybody knows I like owls?!).  It was from my secret sister at church.  Love it!
The kiddos with their Valentine's from Nanny and Pop...bears and giftcards.  They also got stuff from Grammy and Papa and me and Carl.  I love these three goofballs!

Carl made heart-shaped pancakes last night for supper.  He also made eggs and bacon :)  I love him too....this is our.....15th Valentine's together (we were not together at Valentine's on the first year)!  Our 13th wedding anniversary is coming up in about a month and I seriously think we need a little time away!  We'll see. 

And now a little reminder about the greatest love of all:

"For God so loved the world, that he gave his only begotten Son, that whosoever believeth in him should not perish, but have everlasting life."
John 3:16

Happy Valentine's Day From The Munger Family!!

Monday Morning Chit-Chat

  Happy Monday, friends! Well, here we are again. Another Monday morning, another fresh week, and another cup of coffee that I'm hoping will magically give me the energy to accomplish all the things on my to-do list. Spoiler alert: It probably won't. But I'm going to drink it anyway. I thought we would start this week with a little old-fashioned chit-chat. Nothing too serious, nothing life changing. Just a little catching up on life lately, a few random thoughts, and whatever else happens to pop into my head. you know, the kind of conversation we'd have if you stopped by my house, pulled up a chair, and stayed a while. So grab your coffee (or whatever gets you going in the morning), and let's visit. First things first...it's October! This year is absolutely flying by. I love this time of year. The cozy evenings, the fall decorations, the soups and comfort foods, and the excuse to stay home in my pajamas a little longer. Now if Arkansas could just get the memo t...

What's Up Wednesday

 Happy What's Up Wednesday! Today I am linking up with  Shay  and  Sheaffer  for another "What's Up Wednesday" Let's do this! What we're eating this week... So far this week we have made: Wings on the Pit Boss Slow Cooker Pineapple Pork Chops You can't get any easier than wings and chops! Especially when they are on the grill and slow cooker!! What I'm Reminiscing About... Septembers past: September is Trey's birth month. It is also the month that my grandpa died four years ago. This is the year that Papa gave Trey a gun for his birthday. He was so proud to give it to Trey and you can tell by the look on Trey's face how happy he was. Such a sweet moment to remember. Our county fair is also in September. My kids used to love it when they were younger. They still love rides, just not the traveling kind :) This was Wrenley's school picture last year. She has grown so much in one year :) What I'm Loving... Makena and my mom have started mak...

Be Her: When Our Ideal Self Becomes an Idol

 Ella Langley's "Be Her" got me thinking about something I think a lot of women struggle with- the woman we think we should be.  You know her. She's more disciplined. More confident. More put together. She exercises, keeps the house clean, reads her Bible every morning, never loses her patience, and somehow always has good hair. We tell ourselves, If I could just be her..... And there's nothing wrong with wanting to grow. But what happens when the woman we want to become turns into an idol? Sometimes we become so focused on our ideal self that we forget to ask God who He wants us to become. There's a subtle difference between praying, "Lord, make me more like Christ," and saying, "Lord, help me to become the woman I've decided I need to be." One is surrender. The other can easily become control.  Philippians 1:6 reminds us that He which hath begun a good work in you will perform it until the day of Jesus Christ. God isn't waiting fo...
