Halloween 2013

My little vampire

He was really into posing!!

Makena dressed up as Cleopatra

Her pose :)
 
This was Carlie's last minute costume. 
I had told her she was too old, but she really wanted to,
so I caved!

All three
 
Hadlee and Makena

The kids thought it was cool because Aunt Becky had scary make-up on!
 
This was definitely a Halloween like no other.  As I got out of the shower this morning (at 6:40) our electricity went out...no blinking, just poof it was gone!  So thankfully Carl was still here and helped me get them ready really fast (in the dark) so we could go eat breakfast in town.  Everything I had here at the house had to either be cooked in the microwave, stove, or toaster!  It was pouring down rain as we drove to school but we made it fun by listening to "Thriller Thursdays" on the radio while we ate our breakfast at Sonic :)  After I finally dropped them off at school I ran and bought groceries then had to go back and get Carlie out of school for her knee appointment at OrthoArkansas.  We had been waiting on committing to basketball this season until we saw the doctor, but he said that he wasn't going to tell her not to play.  It's kind of one of those things where they tell you to listen to your body!  She has Osgood-Shlettlers disease.  It has to do with the growth plate at the bottom of her knee and it is causing her pain.  She has to wear a brace to practice and the games.  Honestly, I wish she just wouldn't play but all she can think about is getting her Letterman's jacket!
I finally got back home around 11:00 but thankfully Carl was able to pick them up from school, so I didn't have to go back into town :)
They had a lot of fun trick-or-treating and got WAY too much candy! 
 
Another successful Halloween in the books!

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...

Wednesday Loves

Wow, I can't believe it's Wednesday again!  Here are a few things I'm loving this week: I absolutely love this cute little cupcakes. I want to try and make them soon :) I'm loving this idea that came from Merideth .  Trey and I are going to make it for his first day of school.  I know his teacher very well, since both of the girls had her :) I love this Razorback plate from the Magnolia Lane Collection that I got me for my birthday! WOO PIG SOOIE!! And finally, I'm loving my grandmother, or as my kids call her, Grammy. She will be turning 76 on Friday, and I am so blessed to have her be an active part of my life, and my kids lives.  We love you Grammy! What are you loving this week? Beth
