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

  Today I'm linking up with  Andrea  and  Erika  for the first Friday Favorites of 2025! Over the past three weeks, I have thoroughly enjoyed getting to spend more time with Wrenley. She is growing up so much. She is speaking in full sentences and is a clown to boot! We've enjoyed lots of naps in BeBe's bed, playing with baby dolls (one of her favorite things), and since I have to pick her up before 7 a.m. on the days she stays with me, we enjoy getting her favorites: donuts (nonuts) and hotcakes from McDonald's -not at the same time though! Snug as a bug in a rug! She loves her Ky Ky Another favorite is a clean kitchen! We have had our house in a bit of chaos like I'm sure everyone else has with all the holiday festivities (and with Carl being off). I am glad to have everything in its proper place! That ray of sunshine is therapy for my soul! The next thing on my favorites list is Carl's chili. We had it last night and will probably have leftovers for a few day...

Friday Favorites

 Happy January 74th! Ok but really, why does January seem to go on FOREVER?! Today I am linking up with  Andrea  and  Erika  for Friday Favorites! This was definitely a favorite moment from this week!  Our 47th President, Donald J. Trump! Since Monday was also MLK day, I had the pleasure of watching sweet Wrenley.  Celebrating my niece, Ellie Kate's 15th birthday was definitely a favorite! I also watched Wrenley on Wednesday because she was a little under the weather. She had fun playing and getting lots of ice cream and popsicles! Wrenley will always be my favorite. On this day she wanted to "work" like BeBe. She's so precious, even with her little bedhead! Good Music is a favorite. Play some old-school country music and we are golden :) My favorite meal this week. It seems like forever since I made a home-cooked meal! Cajun baked chicken, corn (because Trey loves corn), broccoli, mashed potatoes with white gravy, and rolls were on the menu, and every...
