Father's Day Recap

It was a beautiful weekend to celebrate Father's Day! The festivities for Carl started on Friday after Carl got off work. We went for a swim at my parents and they gave Carl some nice gifts


He got flip flops, a new shirt, and a Browning beach towel for our vacation!
Saturday right after lunch the kids started begging me to let them give him their gifts..so, I gave in.


They were most excited to give him this boat because they knew he would never expect it. He has been talking about getting one for a while. He was surprised!!


We also got him a water sprinkler (something he expected)!


Took the boat for a test drive in the pool. It was fun!


Carl and the kids at the pool


We found a super big card! Carlie picked it out.


My Dad and the kids


Carl and the kids before church.


This is the most awful picture of me, BUT it is a picture of me and my Dad before church. I do love that goofy goober. He is a lot more fun now than he was when I was a kid. He is one of the most respectable people I know...not perfect, but he tries to do the right thing. Love you, Dad!!
Sunday after church we all ate at my grandparents, and I don't mean a cook out either. I mean oven baked chicken, mac and cheese, mashed potatoes, corn, peas...and tons of desserts. My sister and her family were also here, so it was a fun day to for everyone to get together.
Happy Father's Day to Carl, Pop, & Papa. We live you all so much!!

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...
