Mother's Day 2014

Another successful Mother's Day is in the books! I, personally, had the best one so far! Carl was able to be home all weekend and we even got our laundry room project completed :) My kids and Mom showered me with lots of goodies, too!



These are a few of the things I got. My sweet Momma got me a pair of leopard Chacos, Makena got me a pretty pitcher, Trey got me some pretty earrings and Carlie got me some gray towels to go with my gray and yellow bathroom redo (another small project!)


My laundry area! I never think of taking a before picture, but it was just an ugly area separated by pretty red (my favorite color) doors. I kept the doors closed most of the time to hide the ugly!


Saturday morning we got up and went to buy some seeds so we could plant the garden. The girls and I stopped to take a selfie :)


I ended up coming home with this pretty hanging plant! It was another gift from Carl. He also got me a lounge chair for the back porch as well as a pretty skirt.


We had a cookout at our house on Saturday for my Mom. My sister and her kids were down, so it was a perfect time to take a picture with my mom and all of the girls.


I had to take a picture of my dad and his boys too!
It was pretty much a perfect weekend!

When I describe my mother I feel like I say the same thing every year. But she really is the kindest, most unselfish person I know. She does so much for my family, and like it is in most families, she is the glue that holds us together. I love her more than she will know and way more than I could ever show.


I love these three awesome kids. They are the best kids in the world. I am truly blessed to be called their "Mom".

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...

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 ...
