Church Egg Hunt

Trey was ready for our 1st Church Easter Egg Hunt!
 
Makena, Spencer, and Lydia did a great job of hiding eggs and helping with their age group.

I was a little sad because he was the only one hunting eggs this year.
I really don't have any babies anymore :(
 
Me and my girlies!

Makena and Josie
She just went and sat in her lap and started going to sleep.
Kids are just generally drawn to her.
 
Trey and Kynnlea
Now, Trey and little kids are the complete opposite of Makena and little ones!
He is not very tolerant of them and really just tries to stay away.
 
 
Today was our Church Egg Hunt.  This is the first time we have ever had one at the church as an outreach program.  There were quite a few kids there and they all seemed to have a good time.
Trey had a blast, but like I said before, it was a little sad for me because my big girls are too big and don't even want to hunt eggs anymore!  They had a good time helping though, and last night they went with our church group to the late movie to see "God's Not Dead".  They both said it was really good, and they had fun being with other kids their age.  It was a late night, but I'm glad they went and had a good time.
The craziest thing happened after the girls left Friday night. Carl and I had put Trey in bed and were folding some clothes I took off of the line (we live an exciting life, I'm telling ya!) when I kept hearing a buzzing/vibrating sound.  It was coming from a pile of the girls clothes, but we couldn't find it.  I sent Carl out on the porch with a pair of Carlie's jeans.  We could feel it but couldn't find it.  Then Carl found it....it was a bee in her front jeans pocket!  I guess it must have flown in there while they were drying on the line!  He got it out, but not before doing a crazy dance as it was coming out!  He didn't want to get stung.
I know a lot of people aren't fans of line-dried clothes, but I love them!  I feel like I'm actually doing something when I hang clothes out....crazy, I know....and I'm trying not to use so much electricity :)  Not to be "green", but to help my finances!
It was a great day for an egg hunt!

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...

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...

Friday Favorites

 Happy Friday, Friends! Today I'm linking up with  Andrea  and  Erika  for another Friday Favorites. What a week it has been! Having picnics with Wrenley and Makena were pretty high up on my favorites list. She wanted a lunchable (big surprise there!) while Makena and I had tuna salad. Playing outside is a must with Wrenley! And she loves making sure the bird bath has plenty of water! Another thing on my favorites list is listening to Trey play the guitar. This smile is also my favorite! We had a celebration for my son-in-law, Caleb this week. He is a pretty great guy and we are thankful that he is "ours" now :)  He is my favorite son-in-law! As I was studying for my Gospel Project lesson earlier this week I realized we only have 3 more lessons! That means that summer break is just 3 weeks away (for our Wednesday night program)! Although I will still have to prepare lessons for Sunday School and VBS.  Summer is my favorite! This summer will be extra sp...
