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

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 ...
