A Catching-Up Post

I have been the world's worst blogger so far this year!  Not the way I wanted to start out.  But, really though, I have been SUPER busy.  We have had weeks of basketball practice and games. On top of all of that, Carlie hurt her knee playing basketball :(  She did this on Tuesday at the very end of a complete blow-out game.  She went up for the rebound and then got pushed and fell on her knee.  We were getting beat so bad I was talking instead of watching the game and missed it all.  She cried so hard all the way home.  I was able to get her in with our orthopedic doctor at OrthoArkansas on Thursday and now we have an MRI scheduled (again!).  I feel so bad for her because she is for sure going to miss two games, maybe the rest of the season, depending on what the MRI finds :(
My Dad and I have been coaching Makena's Pee-Wee team.  We have lost two and won one, but it has been a pretty fun season so far!  Makena is a beast when it comes to playing ball.  She will go after the ball (and you, if you get in her way!)  She plays down low and is pretty good at intimidating her opponent!  They don't know that she is a gentle giant!! Carlie is great too, and just happens to be a favorite to both coaches.  They always tell about how much heart and drive she has.  I am a very proud mom!
The bad thing about being on the coaching staff is that I don't get to take very many pictures during the game!  I'm used to having my camera in my hand at all times, but I've had to reserve the pictures to before and after the games. 

 

 
That's it, that is my catch-up post!  Nothing but work and basketball going on around here! Busy, Busy, Busy.  But I wouldn't have it any other way :)

Friday Favorites

  Happy Friday, friends! Today I'm linking up with  Andrea  and  Erika  for another Friday favorites. And here they are in no particular order: Last week our preacher told us that he had a surprise for us next week.  I had honestly forgotten about it until Carl mentioned at lunch on Sunday.  Trey said he knew what it was, but he wasn't telling.  It still didn't occur to me what it could be until we arrived at church on Sunday night, and I saw that Trey had a notebook along with his Bible sitting next to him on our pew.  It was him. Trey was the surprise.  He gave a short devotion before our Business Meeting.  He did well, considering it was his first time.  He said the congregation was a lot scarier when you are the one being stared at! This is a big deal because about 7 months ago he realized that he needed Jesus as his Savior.  And that came after about 7 months of me worrying about him, while he was trying to stretch hi...

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...
