Pretty Girls, Deer Stands, and T-Shirts!

My girls are really into doing their hair these days.  Makena decided that she was going to straighten hers.  Her hair is extremely thick and curly, and straightening it is NOT and easy task.  Carlie has some natural curl too, but she used the curling iron and made it more curly on the ends.   These are fun times but they often lead to us running a little late....I'm trying to teach them to start a little earlier....we're still working on that!
This has been our project of the week!  Every day after Carl has gotten home, we have gone out to work on the deer stand!  This is kind of the family stand.  He wouldn't dare take us all at one time, but each person goes with him individually.  The kids really like to go, even though Carlie is the only one who has shot ever shot a deer.  We've all painted on it, and the kids have done a little drilling on it.  Me, I just mainly watch :)
Trey has just started riding the big 4wheeler.  He looks so tiny on it!  He can't drive it very fast because he is so small....he has to push is feet against the back of it so he can turn!  He is very careful and we always watch him closely (usually one of the girls rides with him).
So everybody knows how much I love owls :)  Well, Carlie got this t-shirt for me for my birthday, and I just love it :)

Well, that's about all I have for today!  This will be our last week before school starts and like always, we will be having our annual Back To School photo shoot, so stay tuned!

Friday Favorites

Happy Friday, friends! We made it through another week here on the homestead. Today, I am linking up with  Andrea  and  Erika  for another Friday Favorites :) This week has flown by! On Monday, Wrenley started her new "school year" at daycare. Even though she is in the same school with a lot of the same kids, she moved up and is now officially in PreK! She has had to adjust to new teachers, but seems to like it so far :) She is BeBe's big girl! 💓💓💓 At the beginning of the week, Carl asked if Makena and I wanted to go with him and Trey put some corn and salt blocks out for the deer. Say less, sir! Of course, our answer was yes :) Our chariot and driver Trey and Maggie Hopefully, our hard work pays off! Also came across this guy. He was around 5 ft. long and had 14 rattlers. Don't ask how I know that 😟 We always have a good time when we hang out with our guys, and that is most certainly a favorite! Watching my girl do her thing at work will always be my favorite!...

Friday Favorites

 Woo Hoo, it's Friday! Just last week I was talking about how this month is flying by, but this week has moved at a snail's pace! Today, I am linking up with  Andrea  and  Erika  for Friday Favorites. I have been working on my fitness for about a year now, more seriously in the past 6 months. One thing I've worked on is getting my daily protein in. I tried the built puff protein bars a while ago and they are wonderful, but earlier this week I found the sour puffs, and wow, those things are surprisingly amazing!! I've also taken the new year to do a little more for myself. I started ordering from Nuuly (a monthly clothing subscription). I have found serveral brands that I have wanted to try. There is no pressure to buy anything. You just simply pick 6 items, wear them for the month and send it back and then pick 6 more items (of course, you can purchase if you like). This is a new favorite of mine. At the end of November I bought tickets to the Jason Aldean conce...

Friday Favorites

 Happy Friday, Friends! Today I'm linking up with  Andrea  and  Erika  for another Friday Favorites. What a week it has been! Having picnics with Wrenley and Makena were pretty high up on my favorites list. She wanted a lunchable (big surprise there!) while Makena and I had tuna salad. Playing outside is a must with Wrenley! And she loves making sure the bird bath has plenty of water! Another thing on my favorites list is listening to Trey play the guitar. This smile is also my favorite! We had a celebration for my son-in-law, Caleb this week. He is a pretty great guy and we are thankful that he is "ours" now :)  He is my favorite son-in-law! As I was studying for my Gospel Project lesson earlier this week I realized we only have 3 more lessons! That means that summer break is just 3 weeks away (for our Wednesday night program)! Although I will still have to prepare lessons for Sunday School and VBS.  Summer is my favorite! This summer will be extra sp...
