School Christmas Program

Today was our last day of school before Christmas break!  We got out at 11:30, ate lunch, then the kids and I got haircuts.  The plan was to come home and rest before we had to be back at 6:30, but instead we rested and then ran back into town to shop for clothes for the girls to wear.  How did I not remember this?!  My world has been a little crazy lately.  I just seem to be having a very hard time concentrating on anything! I keep hearing the words of our tennis teacher at school, "Hocus, Pocus, let's all Focus"!
 
I tried to get some good pictures of the kids on stage this year instead of just singing in the choir. 

He was giving me "the eye" from the stage.
They were sitting on stage listening to someone read them the story of Jesus' birth, then they sang "Tell Me the Story of Jesus".  It was so sweet.
Trey and his girlfriend, Devin
All of the girls in Makena's class were angels.
I think she was the prettiest.
And all of the boys were shepherds.
Carlie, Hannah, and Abby
I never could get her to look at me.  She would never admit this, but she gets extremely nervous singing in front of people.
The other half of the girls in Carlie's class.
Some of the High School kids.
Trey's class is on the bottom in the choir.
The did a great job singing.

It was a great program--Now Bring On CHRISTMAS BREAK!!

Monday Morning Chit-Chat

  Happy Monday, friends! Well, here we are again. Another Monday morning, another fresh week, and another cup of coffee that I'm hoping will magically give me the energy to accomplish all the things on my to-do list. Spoiler alert: It probably won't. But I'm going to drink it anyway. I thought we would start this week with a little old-fashioned chit-chat. Nothing too serious, nothing life changing. Just a little catching up on life lately, a few random thoughts, and whatever else happens to pop into my head. you know, the kind of conversation we'd have if you stopped by my house, pulled up a chair, and stayed a while. So grab your coffee (or whatever gets you going in the morning), and let's visit. First things first...it's October! This year is absolutely flying by. I love this time of year. The cozy evenings, the fall decorations, the soups and comfort foods, and the excuse to stay home in my pajamas a little longer. Now if Arkansas could just get the memo t...

What's Up Wednesday

 Happy What's Up Wednesday! Today I am linking up with  Shay  and  Sheaffer  for another "What's Up Wednesday" Let's do this! What we're eating this week... So far this week we have made: Wings on the Pit Boss Slow Cooker Pineapple Pork Chops You can't get any easier than wings and chops! Especially when they are on the grill and slow cooker!! What I'm Reminiscing About... Septembers past: September is Trey's birth month. It is also the month that my grandpa died four years ago. This is the year that Papa gave Trey a gun for his birthday. He was so proud to give it to Trey and you can tell by the look on Trey's face how happy he was. Such a sweet moment to remember. Our county fair is also in September. My kids used to love it when they were younger. They still love rides, just not the traveling kind :) This was Wrenley's school picture last year. She has grown so much in one year :) What I'm Loving... Makena and my mom have started mak...

Be Her: When Our Ideal Self Becomes an Idol

 Ella Langley's "Be Her" got me thinking about something I think a lot of women struggle with- the woman we think we should be.  You know her. She's more disciplined. More confident. More put together. She exercises, keeps the house clean, reads her Bible every morning, never loses her patience, and somehow always has good hair. We tell ourselves, If I could just be her..... And there's nothing wrong with wanting to grow. But what happens when the woman we want to become turns into an idol? Sometimes we become so focused on our ideal self that we forget to ask God who He wants us to become. There's a subtle difference between praying, "Lord, make me more like Christ," and saying, "Lord, help me to become the woman I've decided I need to be." One is surrender. The other can easily become control.  Philippians 1:6 reminds us that He which hath begun a good work in you will perform it until the day of Jesus Christ. God isn't waiting fo...
