Lots of Stuff

I got 10 inches chopped off of my hair! 
Aren't Snapchat filters fun?!

My main man has been working hard this week...thankfully that Frogg Toggs Chilly Pad helped keep cool in the fields.

Trey has been hitting those bream hard in the evenings!

If you have read my blog much in the past, you know that summer is my absolute favorite time of the year, with fall coming in at a close second.  I'm ready for the transition ya'll.  I'm not sure what the problem is this year, but this heat is about to do me in...and I love all of the fall/Halloween decorations :)

On another note, Makena Faith made it home from camp on Friday!! I don't think I have ever been so happy to have all of my people back in one place! She had a great time and can't wait until next year!
On Wednesday while cleaning her room, Carlie found out the air had been leaking in their room.  Long story short, we had to spend the weekend replacing the floor, the wall, putting new windows in , and repainting!  The one good thing that came from it is that the bubble gum pink paint is long gone! We still have a few details to work on, so when it is completed I will post a picture.  We were wanting a pretty light gray paint, but it ended up looking more light blue....it looks fantabulous though.  We put their Vera Bradley comforters back on (they only used them for about 6 mos. a couple of years ago) and it is like a new room.  They are pleased as well.

It was a busy, busy weekend.  Carl worked hard to get it all done, he was pretty sore Saturday night, but he did awesome and we are so thankful that he is so handy :)

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!...

Red Flags: Guarding Our Hearts & Our Churches

 Scripture tells us that shepherds are entrusted with God's flock, no for selfish gain but "being examples to the flock" (1 Peter 5:3). A pastor's calling is a holy one, rooted in humility, sacrifice, and love. But Jesus also warned that not every shepherd has pure intentions--some are "wolves in sheep's clothing" (Matthew 7:15).  As believers, we must stay discerning. Here are some red flags to watch out for in pastors: 1.  Special Treatment for Certain Families  James warns against showing partiality (James 2:1-4), yet some pastors cater to certain families, wealthy donors, or influential members while neglecting the rest of the body. Christ doesn't play favorites--every soul in the church matters equally to Him. A true shepherd cares for the unnoticed as much as the well-known. 2. Neglecting the Brokenhearted  Jesus came to heal the brokenhearted (Luke 4:18), but a pastor who avoids the messy, hurting, or less "influential" people in th...

Back To School Photo Shoot

The girls have been begging me since yesterday to take some pictures of them in some of their new outfits but yesterday the weather was kinda iffy as to if was going to rain (never did) and we would have had to fix hair before....and that just didn't really fit into our day, so I told them after church would work.  I would have never guessed how sleepy I would have been after not enough sleep due to Carlie's stomach issues and the fact that I took sinus medicine before I went to bed thought I was going to bed at 11:00.  Needless to say,  could hardly keep my eyes open during church.  I was seriously thinking of finding an empty room and taking a nap until church was over!  Instead, I waited until after we ate lunch (leftovers from last night!) and cleaned up.  I think we finished in record time and I was snoozing away by 12:45 :)  I could hear the kids, so I got up around 2:30 and the first thing Makena asked me was "Can we take pictures now?"....
