Memorial Day Fun!

Happy Memorial Day!  And thank you to all of you who have fought for our freedom!!  We celebrated Memorial Day by having a cook out at my Mom and Dad's house with my grandparents.  Carl had to work this year...BOO!!  And my sister and her kids weren't able to be here, but surprisingly my kids had a blast having the pool to themselves :)
Carl made it in just in time for lunch and then had to head back out to the field.
 
Mr. Jim and Mrs. Amy came by and took Trey for a little ride!
He loved it and talked their ears off the whole time!
 
After we ate and Carl went back to work, we headed out to the pool.
My mom bought this Bonsai Ball that is kind of like hot potato but with a water balloon.
It has a timer on it and when it goes off, the water balloon bursts!  It's a lot of fun :)
 
He missed his Daddy, but he still tried to have fun!
 
Carlie made a flag, but didn't want her picture made with it because her hair was too messy!!
Trey with his art.  He was the only one that would let me take his picture today!!

Makena decided not to draw a flag, but instead drew a heart that says Jesus Loves!
 
And here is yet, another picture of T. 
He was floating around with Pop, trying to do everything he did :)

 I forgot to post this one Friday, but here are my three monkey's in the truck on the way to Graduation.
 
And this one was taken yesterday before church.
 
I finally made them stop and take on for me after we got back home from swimming!!  Carlie was still worried about her hair, and please, don't pay much attention to our "play attire"!
 
It was a pretty fun day, even though we didn't have Carl with us!  I know we won't have him everyday all summer long, but it's just different when it's a holiday!
 
Happy Memorial Day!!

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 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 ...
