Too Far Behind To Catch Up


Makena was such a big help with Noah!  He only wanted her to help him in the pool



Silly Boy!
My pretty girl!

They were freezing in the elevator!

After we played in the pool we headed down Beale Street to eat at Hard Rock Cafe.  It's been a couple of years since we have eaten there and we all enjoyed it!  Noah wasn't at all bothered by all the loud music, I think if anything, it made him feel more at home (the noise, not the rock music!)! As we were about to leave Makena saw the horse and carriages begged for a ride so we  Carl caved and so we had a very nice little carriage ride, even if all 8 of us were in one carriage :)  We learned lots about the history of the Downtown area.  I do have pictures somewhere, I just can't get them to load.  I'm not sure if it is Blogger or my Internet that's giving me such trouble.
So now on to the Show! The kids had so much fun going around and getting all kinds of stuff....pencils, magnets, bags, candy, and much more!  We came home with three bags FULL of these things!  Carlie climbed up in a spray truck (not sure the official name).  We're all in trouble if she ever gets to drive one of these!
Here is the only picture that would load from Hard Rock.  Pop couldn't even get off his phone for a picture with Kena :)

Carl and Makena.  She's been a real Daddy's Girl lately.

Trey stood in line and got a picture and an autograph from The Duck Commander!  He sort of knew who he was because he has watched him on TV with Carl a time or two.

Trey and Noah on a fork lift.  I know I got T's picture on here last year, but Noah's first time excitement over everything (especially all the different sizes of tires!) was so cute, I had to get another picture of them both this year.
At the Fire Museum.  The boys had a blast, but I think the girls had fun too!

So there you have it!  Finally, I got the Memphis post finished!  Now you don't have to read about fishing anymore :) 
Thanks Nanny and Pop for taking us again :)

Friday Favorites

  Happy Friday, friends! Today I'm linking up with  Andrea  and  Erika  for another Friday favorites. And here they are in no particular order: Last week our preacher told us that he had a surprise for us next week.  I had honestly forgotten about it until Carl mentioned at lunch on Sunday.  Trey said he knew what it was, but he wasn't telling.  It still didn't occur to me what it could be until we arrived at church on Sunday night, and I saw that Trey had a notebook along with his Bible sitting next to him on our pew.  It was him. Trey was the surprise.  He gave a short devotion before our Business Meeting.  He did well, considering it was his first time.  He said the congregation was a lot scarier when you are the one being stared at! This is a big deal because about 7 months ago he realized that he needed Jesus as his Savior.  And that came after about 7 months of me worrying about him, while he was trying to stretch hi...

Friday Favorites

 It's been a hot minute since I've linked up with  Andrea  and  Erika  for a Friday Favorites! This is me trying to get back into my blogging groove :) I came across this little dress last year when we moved, and I knew it would be fit Wrenley this summer! It was Makena's circa 2004.  I just love it when a plan comes together.  A favorite for sure! Look at those babies. Twenty years has flown by. Miss Wrenley Beth. She doesn't look a thing like her momma, but definitely has Aunt Makena's sass! Hopefully as her hair grows, she will get Carlie's curls. We have been doing as much outdoor activities as possible.  That includes one of my favorite things...fishing! Carl, showing off his big bass. We weren't technically bass fishing, but whatever bites. It'll eat! Of course we have also been going to the river.  Our kids weren't able to go with us, so we just took the jet ski.   It has been raining so the water is a gross brown. I didn't s...
