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! We made it through another week here on the homestead. Today, I am linking up with  Andrea  and  Erika  for another Friday Favorites :) This week has flown by! On Monday, Wrenley started her new "school year" at daycare. Even though she is in the same school with a lot of the same kids, she moved up and is now officially in PreK! She has had to adjust to new teachers, but seems to like it so far :) She is BeBe's big girl! 💓💓💓 At the beginning of the week, Carl asked if Makena and I wanted to go with him and Trey put some corn and salt blocks out for the deer. Say less, sir! Of course, our answer was yes :) Our chariot and driver Trey and Maggie Hopefully, our hard work pays off! Also came across this guy. He was around 5 ft. long and had 14 rattlers. Don't ask how I know that 😟 We always have a good time when we hang out with our guys, and that is most certainly a favorite! Watching my girl do her thing at work will always be my favorite!...

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'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...
