More Beachin' Pics!

Me, Trey, and Makena....I'm not sure where Carlie was
There she is!
Just some dude, cruisin' in his car with his homie
Trey caught some weird fish
Then he caught one of those little devil jellyfish!
Carl, Makena, and Trey were playing ball
Me and my girls, just chillaxin' on the beach!
Carl and Trey Landon
We dared Trey to get out there and show the girls how to hula hoop. He got up out of his chair and marched out to the sand and showed them how it is done!! They all looked at him like he was an alien, but he didn't care.  I got it on video and it is hilarious...oh, and "Stayin' Alive" by the BeeGees was playing, lol  We love Lulu's!!
While the girls were complaining that it was hot and they were hungry, Trey and I stood in line so he could climb the "Mountain of Youth".
He got this far when they all had to come down because of thunder and lightening!
Relaxing in his chair, playing in the sand.
This is the only way Carlie would go out past her knees in the water....Carl had to hold on to her body board, and most of the time she had a death grip on his arm.  She has never had this problem before.  I think she was freaked by all of the little fish swimming around her. And she was the one wanting to watch "The Shallows" while we were there.  Yeah, right!!
This was one of the biggest things that happened on vacation this year.  I let Makena get her cartilage pierced.  A lot of people might think that it's a big deal.  I don't.  It's a piercing....on the ear....what difference does the location on the ear make?!  She was super excited!
The girl that did the piercing was so nice and made her feel very relaxed.
If you ever need a piercing done in lower Alabama, go to Island Girl Piercing.  They Rock!!

Very sad that our time at the beach is coming to an end, but also very excited to be at home in my house! Tomorrow is the day :(

Much Love,
Beth

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...

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...

Be Her: When Our Ideal Self Becomes an Idol

 Ella Langley's "Be Her" got me thinking about something I think a lot of women struggle with- the woman we think we should be.  You know her. She's more disciplined. More confident. More put together. She exercises, keeps the house clean, reads her Bible every morning, never loses her patience, and somehow always has good hair. We tell ourselves, If I could just be her..... And there's nothing wrong with wanting to grow. But what happens when the woman we want to become turns into an idol? Sometimes we become so focused on our ideal self that we forget to ask God who He wants us to become. There's a subtle difference between praying, "Lord, make me more like Christ," and saying, "Lord, help me to become the woman I've decided I need to be." One is surrender. The other can easily become control.  Philippians 1:6 reminds us that He which hath begun a good work in you will perform it until the day of Jesus Christ. God isn't waiting fo...
