Life In The Slow Lane

We have been taking it easy around here lately.  I realized on Tuesday that I hadn't been to "town" (18 Mikes away) since Friday...that's 4 days away from civilization  (not really, but kind of). I am honestly NOT missing the drive EVERY DAY!!
 
We have finally started to get some veggies out of our garden! Still no tomatoes, but we have squash, cucumbers and jalapenos.
 
 
I may have mentioned it before, but I do love these flowers.  Most of them are taller than I am!
 
Trey and Carl have been shooting their bows.  They are already ready for hunting season!
 
Carlie and Sadie
 
My Sadie Lou and the sack she drug up from somewhere!
 
Every year we try to take a picture of all of my moms grandkids on the diving board at her pool.
It's kind of neat to see how much they have grown from year to year!
 
Yesterday evening we drove to the farm so Carl and Trey could put their game cameras out.
They are mostly trying to see how many hogs they can get rid of before deer season!
 
Makena Faith and her giant flamingo, Fawn!
 
Carlie worked hard on verse posters for Vacation Bible School, which is next week!
 
I am in charge of the music for VBS again, so my mom ordered me some masks of different farm animals that the kids can wear while singing (we'll see how long they last).  Does this look like an owl to you?!  It really doesn't to me, but that is what it is supposed be :)
 
 
So now that things are moving a little slower for us, I think it may be time to start on some projects around the house. I'm pacing myself, so maybe next week :)
 
Much Love,
Beth

Back To School Photo Shoot: The Girls

Three Doses of Happiness

Laundry piled up, dishes in the sink, phone buzzing with many emails, toys all over the house.......sounds like an absolute perfect time to go outside and relax with my kiddos! Today has been a VERY warm day.  It probably would be more enjoyable if we didn't know that it would more than likely storm tonight!  Carlie didn't go to school today because she was up a lot last night with stomach issues.  She never vomited, but she was very nauseated and has had stomach cramps.  She hasn't felt bad all day, just off and one.  We might be going to the doctor tomorrow p.m. because Sunday night I noticed that she has a little bulge above her belly button, I wasn't concerned about it (really) until her stomach started hurting and she said that it hurt to tough.  Maybe it's nothing, but people keep mentioning hernia to me.  Please pray that she feels better soon.  Also tomorrow is the big day....academic advising.  I remember the very first time I was advised (somewhere a
