Trey's Big Saturday!

Go Trey!

Kicking the ball in

How cute is he?!

He was up against a long time friend that he went to private school with.
Her name is Devin and they were pretty good friends before he left.

Kick it T!

Getting Ready for his Angry Birds Party!

Carlie and Trey

Happy Early Birthday, Trey Landon!!

We love us some Legos!

We also love cards with $$$

He got a Galaxy Tab from Nanny and Pop

He got a new bike from me and Carl

Our Saturday was pretty packed as you can see!!  We had to be at the soccer field by 8:45 and then had to be back home for Trey's party by 11:30.  We had plenty of time, but I also had plenty to do.  It has been so warm here that we decided to go ahead and swim at the party!  It was just a family party, but he got to pick the theme and he came up with Angry Birds!  I thought maybe it would be a soccer party or even a sports party, but Angry Birds?!  I'm not sure where that came from. 
Noah, Eli, and Ellie Kate got to be here for the party and they all had fun (I think).  In a couple of weeks we will be celebrating Eli's birthday. 
After the party we still had to clean the church and of course watch the Razorback play TCU.  What a game that was!  Carl got home a little earlier and we went to the farm (we listened to the game, and Makena Faith wasn't happy about that!) to put some deer corn and bran out and also to check the game cameras.  Carl is definitely ready for deer season.  We were up screaming and hollering at the TV like crazy people until finally the Hogs beat the TCU in double overtime!!  It was a very stressful game.  I thought it was a lost cause several times, but they never gave up and ended up with a win!
It was pretty awesome weekend.  We didn't get any rain (where we needed it anyway), but everything worked out just like it should.  God makes away to sustain us just about the time we feel like we could just break---even if it's from nothing but shear exhaustion! 

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?"....
