Fall Festival

Makena and Madeline playing the egg toss game

Carlie and Heather were ready to play!
 
The kiddos were excited about singing

T was playing egg toss with an older friend, Jaxon
 
Then it was time for another favorite, the balloon stomp!
 
We looked up during the Balloon Stomp and T was cheating the whole time by holding his balloon so nobody could stomp it! You can see in this picture he is still holding the orange balloon :)

Next was a Balloon Relay. 
 
Ready to Race!
 
We crowned a "Fall Festival Princess"
The girls got to dress one boy up on their team and then we had judges to vote.
This is Jaxon with the big boobs!
 
Addison won and he was by no doubt the ugliest princess ever!
 
Friday night was our annual church Fall Festival.  We had lots of fun eating chili, playing games, singing and having a devotional.  We really had a great turnout and after we finished all the games we had a lock-in with the girls at our Fellowship Hall and the boys were supposed to camp out but due to the weather, they had a bonfire at our house and spent the night at our church's parsonage (since no one is living there right now).  I'm not going to lie and tell you that I enjoyed the lock-in (I like to be at home in MY bed, getting a FULL nights sleep), but the girls had a good time, I think.  Trey and Carl had a great time with all the boys and we had them all home by 8:30 this morning!!  I didn't take any pictures during the lock-in and of course Carl didn't think to take any of the boys. 
 
Great night with great people!

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...
