Saturday Sillyness

Carl was having too much fun on Trey's digger!

Shh...they were kind of playing together!

Since Carl took down the old swing set, the kids have resorted to taking turns swinging on the tree swing.
This really isn't an issue because most of the time they don't even want to swing...of course when they do it's all at once!!

His Daddy pushed him this high..I wasn't a fan of it!
Oh, my little shirtless boy!

We grilled out some yummy burgers and dogs!

Then some of us went walking.  I chose to sit in my chair and take pictures instead.

Our cat, Salem, just chillin'


Until Snoopy attacked (playfully) him!

Saturday we had another fun family day.  Carl had to work that morning, but got back home by 8:30.  The heat has been so extreme this past week. I feel terrible that he has to work out in it.  It was still hot today but we were able to keep cool in the pool while Carl mowed the yard :)
I'm trying to enjoy the next few weekends that we have Carl home with us.  I know it won't be long before harvest starts and he'll be working long hours.
Something crazy happened while we were out at the pool Thursday.  My back started hurting so bad I could barely breathe.  I really thought Carlie was going to have to drive me home (thankful for all of those summer driving lessons), but I made it home and all of the kids helped me in the house and to the couch.  Makena cooked supper and Carl and the other kids helped her clean it up.  I was in a lot of pain off and on all weekend and was very thankful that I had some great medicine to take.  It finally went away on Monday!  
Glad to feel better and able to move again :)  And that's another great Saturday for the books.

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...

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 ...
