Stuff

Notice anything different?!  NO MORE GLASSES!!
Carlie got her contacts a couple of days before we went to the Pumpkin Patch.  It was a little rough at first, learning to put them in and take them out, but just today she started putting them in without my help :)  She's growing up way too fast. 

Makena doing one of her moves.....she loves doing stuff like this...ALL THE TIME!!

Trey got his first library card this week!  He was so excited to be able to check his books out with his own library card :)  He was being a little silly after we left, but that's just T!
 
This has been sort of an off week for me.  I was sick and did't go into work until Friday, and still I'm not 100%.  Makena has been fighting a sore throat and cold and missed school on Monday...and basketball practice.  Yes, basketball practice started on Monday (for Pee Wee) and Varsity started on Thursday.  Carl has been SUPER busy trying to get beans cut so the wheat can be planted.  The other two kids were doing pretty good until yesterday afternoon when we got home from school when I noticed lovely yellow gunk coming out of T's eye! That's right, pink eye.  We went to the Dr. this morning.  Carlie was outside (yesterday after school) playing with Makena by the tree swing when Makena jumped out and the swing came back and hit her in the head leaving a HUGE goose-egg and bruise on her forehead and the side of her nose! 
As you can see, it's just been one thing after the other all week long.....UGH, STUFF!
But......I am thankful that we are all on the mend today :) 
Happy Saturday, Friends!

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...
