What A Week!

Whew! What a week it has been.  The heat has been almost unbearable down here and the kids are getting slightly bored with summer.  I don't know about you, but this happens almost EVERY year right before school starts.
I have been working all week long on getting our school stuff organized.  The kids have their things organized but I have more books than they do! 
These are my books for 5th grade.....alone!

These are for 10th grade

And these are my 9th grade books!

Here is a list of the classes I will be "teaching". 

The only classes that I am nervous about are Orchestra I and Spanish I.   I took Spanish in both high school and college, but let's face it, that has been a while ago.  Orchestra is a horse of a different color.  I sure hope Mr. Jaffe is a darn good video teacher because I already know she has to send audio samples of her playing for the school in Florida to grade! I'm just a little worried about how involved I will have to be with teaching those two subjects.  Technically, I am only the on-site teacher, and they are "taught" by the teachers at Pensacola Christian Academy in Florida.   
We took a few back to school pictures Friday afternoon and Saturday morning.  Trey wasn't in the mood and was too busy "working" with Carl to participate (plus his hair wouldn't go down!).  He knows that his day is coming, though!!  I have taken quite a few pictures of the girls, but I am only going to post the ones that I have already shared on Facebook and Instagram until I take T's. 


How is she already a Sophomore?!

And my baby girl is a Freshman this year!!

Two beautiful girls.  I may be a little partial :)

I am pretty pleased with how they turned out and I can't wait to do Trey's.

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

 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...
