Thursday Randomness


Today we got our new puppy, Charles Bartholomew Bass, AKA Chuck Bass.
Yes, he is absolutely adorable and yes, he is named after Chuck Bass from Gossip Girl!
Carlie is a HUGE fan :)

We also took the boat out on her first official family river trip!
Carl has worked hard on getting this thing running, and mostly without my support.
Honestly I never thought he would get it in the water, and when he finally did, I never thought we'd get the seats put in and covered, but he did.  Basically I just saw it as a huge money pit.  Maybe I was wrong (shhh, don't tell him I said that!).

He was so happy that we were all out there with him.

My parents and Carlie tagged along in the fishing boat in case we needed help!

Trey was pretty worried about riding in the boat at first.  When he realized that we weren't going to blow up and die, he was having a blast!  Chuck Bass may be a little worried!!

Me and Makena Faith.  We were going down the river, so that's why her shirt is all messed up.

We started our day out by running a few errands and of course we ended up at Wal-Mart and then we went through the drive thru at Wendy's.  Man, was I ever sorry that we stopped there!  I ordered Trey two junior bacon cheeseburgers plain, and of course when we drove around to leave they weren't plain!  They had mayo, lettuce, and pickle on them.  The line to take them back was forever long and our Wendy's is being remodeled so you can't go in!  Thankfully most of the mayo was on the top of the bun and so we made a "bender" burger!  He was happy and I was happy....it was a win win!!
It has been super hot here.  Our whole state has been in a heat advisory.  The pool is no longer cool.  Seriously, it feels like bath water.  We had already made up our mind not to swim today. That's when we got the call that Chuck Bass was ready.  He is absolutely adorable.  He wobbles because he is so fat.  We are already in love with him. 
After our spaghetti dinner, we went to the river with my parents.  Carl has been working on this jet boat that he ended up with after a trade since last summer.  I am glad that he got it running.  He is happy and that makes me happy.  I think everyone had a good time, even the dog :) 
Hope we wore Chuck Bass out so he sleeps well tonight and doesn't miss his mommy too much (and cry all night)!!

Much Love,
Beth

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

  Today I'm linking up with  Andrea  and  Erika  for the first Friday Favorites of 2025! Over the past three weeks, I have thoroughly enjoyed getting to spend more time with Wrenley. She is growing up so much. She is speaking in full sentences and is a clown to boot! We've enjoyed lots of naps in BeBe's bed, playing with baby dolls (one of her favorite things), and since I have to pick her up before 7 a.m. on the days she stays with me, we enjoy getting her favorites: donuts (nonuts) and hotcakes from McDonald's -not at the same time though! Snug as a bug in a rug! She loves her Ky Ky Another favorite is a clean kitchen! We have had our house in a bit of chaos like I'm sure everyone else has with all the holiday festivities (and with Carl being off). I am glad to have everything in its proper place! That ray of sunshine is therapy for my soul! The next thing on my favorites list is Carl's chili. We had it last night and will probably have leftovers for a few day...

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...
