Fun With the Cousins/Outdoor Fun

We were pleasantly surprised on Monday afternoon when my parents went to pick up my niece and nephews!  Trey (and the girls) love playing them.  I didn't tell Trey the boys were coming and Noah really surprised him when he just walked in the living room and said, "Hey Trey, you wanna go play outside".  Trey did a double take :)  It was cute!  So Tuesday after we got home from school the first thing he wanted to do was go play with the cousins!  We played for a while, then ate supper, then went to my parents house and they played some more.  We left around 7:30 or 7:45 to go home and get baths.  That is the hardest thing about this time of year:  it stays light later and they don't ever want to come in until it's time for bed! 
My mom got some good pictures of them playing outside but I got the best one :)
All six of them!  And believe it or not, they are all looking at the camera!
 
On another day, Carlie, Trey, and I were outside playing while Makena was inside doing her homework.  She could have been out with us, but she is the most terrible procrastinator!  She puts off everything...homework, taking a bath, getting up in the mornings...you name it, she says, "I'll do it later"!  It drives me crazy, but I know that I am somewhat the same :)
She is still trying to avoid my pictures!
This was taken on a day that Carl was actually working later in the fields!  Yeah, that hasn't happened since that day :)  One day it will all get planted.  We may be harvesting in December, but it will get done!

Carlie with Sam.  He is a big dog but she has a great love for him!
 
Hope you are all enjoying Spring as much as we are!

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!...

Red Flags: Guarding Our Hearts & Our Churches

 Scripture tells us that shepherds are entrusted with God's flock, no for selfish gain but "being examples to the flock" (1 Peter 5:3). A pastor's calling is a holy one, rooted in humility, sacrifice, and love. But Jesus also warned that not every shepherd has pure intentions--some are "wolves in sheep's clothing" (Matthew 7:15).  As believers, we must stay discerning. Here are some red flags to watch out for in pastors: 1.  Special Treatment for Certain Families  James warns against showing partiality (James 2:1-4), yet some pastors cater to certain families, wealthy donors, or influential members while neglecting the rest of the body. Christ doesn't play favorites--every soul in the church matters equally to Him. A true shepherd cares for the unnoticed as much as the well-known. 2. Neglecting the Brokenhearted  Jesus came to heal the brokenhearted (Luke 4:18), but a pastor who avoids the messy, hurting, or less "influential" people in th...

Friday Favorites

 Happy Friday, friends! Today I am linking up with  Andrea  and  Erika  for another Friday Favorites. This is going to be a rapid-fire Friday favorites because it is getting late and I have to wake up extra early to pick up a special little girl :) The said little girl! Nobody ever told me how much you love your grandbabies! Spending time with Wrenley is always one of my favorites💗 Another one of my favorite things is watching Makena present. This time she was on her "home turf". She did a presentation on The Stuttgart Army Airfield for a historical group at our community center. They had their biggest turnout for a meeting because Makena has so many people who support her and love her. We are thankful for everyone who came. Of course she did a great job. I'm always proud of her. It is always a favorite any time I get a video or picture of my grandson, Wesley. I can't wait until June! My gentle giant, Boone, wanting to do his favorite thing: GO OUTSIDE! Makena ...
