Glasses,Hats,Pizza, and The Hogs!

Trey got his new glasses, and I must say he looks so handsome in them!

Grammy and Papa gave Trey a hat (kind of for his birthday, kind of not!)

We had a few days of  cooler weather and evidently, it was a little too cold for Makena Faith in our house, so she broke out the hoodie.  By the way, yes, she is taking a test in her pajama pants at the kitchen table!  We love homeschooling :)

We made pizza's on Friday night.  We bought the crusts and the kids picked what they wanted on their own.  You know we have to do/ have three of everything!  Carlie made a cheese stuffed crust (she used crescent rolls) pizza, Makena made taco pizza, and Trey made a hamburger and pepperoni pizza.  They were the best we have ever made and they had fun doing it!

It has been one week since rice harvest started and let me just say, I am SO over it!
Carl and I have been together for 20 years and married for 17 and I don't think I will EVER get used to being a single mom!  One night a dump broke down and of course he was already in the late pull, so he didn't even make it home until 9:30.  Our kids go to bed at 9:00 (typically)....again, this is a perk to homeschooling.  They were able to stay up and talk to him for a little while before going to bed.  If we had still been in "school" they would have already been in bed, and probably asleep!
I am just ready for it to be over because I am D.O.N.E.  (and like I said, we are just beginning, so pray for me and for rain, SOMETHING!!)!  Maybe its because we are already home all day as it is, I don't know.

Saturday we dressed in our Razorback attire and called the Hogs to a victory against Louisiana Tech!  It wasn't be best playing I've seen from them, but maybe they will get better as the season goes on (we hope!)!  Carlie wasn't interested in the Razorback game because her beloved Mississippi State Bulldogs just lost to Southern Alabama, and she was a little miffed! 

Carl made it home a little early (like 30 minutes) so we went out to the farm to put out some game cameras.  He had a HUGE buck on his camera and was super pumped!  Trey has been busy putting corn out  in the back pasture for "his" deer.  Carl killed a pretty good buck back there a couple of years ago (we named him Backyard Buck), so it isn't totally unrealistic that he will see one.  So far we've only gotten doe, but he's anticipating that big buck!

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...
