What I'm Thankful For Day 10 & Our Saturday

Today I am thankful for my sister, Jamie.  Jamie and I used to be super close.  I mean, you don't move around as much as we did when we were younger and not be close!  When we didn't have anyone else, we always had each other.  Over the years, life happened.  We both got married, had kids and lives of our own.  She moved....and move....and moved (seriously I could go on and on) and now we don't get to see each other that much.  I am thankful for all the good times that we've had and I'm also thankful that she gave me two nephews and a niece. I guess while I'm at it, I should say that I'm thankful for Cody too!  Ya'll are awesome and I love you all! 

This morning Carlie got up and went shopping with my mom for her birthday!  Monday is the day, but since it is a school day they did their celebrating today.  They shopped and ate out and Carlie came home the happiest girl in the world!

Today was also opening day of gun season.   I am telling you deer hunting is THE BOMB in this house!  Everybody loves it, except me :)  Carl went to his spot at the farm both this morning and this afternoon and didn't see any deer but he did see some hogs.  These hogs have made the biggest mess you have ever seen and are eating all his deer food, so he shot one. 
Bacon, Ham bone, Pork chop.....I just call him UGLY or STINKY. 
One down in the battle against the hogs!!

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...
