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!

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

 It's been a hot minute since I've linked up with  Andrea  and  Erika  for a Friday Favorites! This is me trying to get back into my blogging groove :) I came across this little dress last year when we moved, and I knew it would be fit Wrenley this summer! It was Makena's circa 2004.  I just love it when a plan comes together.  A favorite for sure! Look at those babies. Twenty years has flown by. Miss Wrenley Beth. She doesn't look a thing like her momma, but definitely has Aunt Makena's sass! Hopefully as her hair grows, she will get Carlie's curls. We have been doing as much outdoor activities as possible.  That includes one of my favorite things...fishing! Carl, showing off his big bass. We weren't technically bass fishing, but whatever bites. It'll eat! Of course we have also been going to the river.  Our kids weren't able to go with us, so we just took the jet ski.   It has been raining so the water is a gross brown. I didn't s...
