Merry Christmas!

This morning we got up and opened our presents at our house!  The kids were so excited to see what all they got.

Can you see the excitement on Trey's face when I said, "Go"?!

 Carlie got the phone case she has been wanting :)

Makena also got a phone case for her phone!

Makena got the Nike slide on shoes she wanted too!

New Nike sack for basketball

A truck he picked out at Tractor Supply
She was really happy about her new Patagonia!

And some little girl got the exact laptop she asked for!
I really had to push Carl into this. He didn't think she needed one, but she does have a lot of papers to do, and that's only going to increase in the coming years! She was so happy :)

And this little girl got her purple bicycle that she has been wanting!
She kept saying, "But it's not at Wal-Mart anymore" and finally Carlie said, "Well, if they got it for you then it wouldn't be at Wal-Mart anymore would it?!"!  Duh, Makena!  She is such a blonde sometimes!

And Trey got the gun that him and Carl have been looking at and talking about for months!
I never got a good picture of it that morning with my camera, but I have a feeling that a post in the near future will be nothing but a phone picture dump!
He was pumped!
And Snoopy got some toys too!

And again.

God has truly blessed us this Christmas!  Not only with all of the gifts that we just "loved" (my Dad says, "love people, like things."), but with our health, families, and friends. I'm grateful for the memories we have made this holiday season, and I know I say it every year, but this is the best one yet!
  I'm so grateful most of all,  that God sent his Son to come so lowly in a manger, die on the cross, and be raised from death so that we may have everlasting life.  That's what Christmas is truly about.

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...

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!...
