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

Monday Morning Chit-Chat

  Happy Monday, friends! Well, here we are again. Another Monday morning, another fresh week, and another cup of coffee that I'm hoping will magically give me the energy to accomplish all the things on my to-do list. Spoiler alert: It probably won't. But I'm going to drink it anyway. I thought we would start this week with a little old-fashioned chit-chat. Nothing too serious, nothing life changing. Just a little catching up on life lately, a few random thoughts, and whatever else happens to pop into my head. you know, the kind of conversation we'd have if you stopped by my house, pulled up a chair, and stayed a while. So grab your coffee (or whatever gets you going in the morning), and let's visit. First things first...it's October! This year is absolutely flying by. I love this time of year. The cozy evenings, the fall decorations, the soups and comfort foods, and the excuse to stay home in my pajamas a little longer. Now if Arkansas could just get the memo t...

What's Up Wednesday

 Happy What's Up Wednesday! Today I am linking up with  Shay  and  Sheaffer  for another "What's Up Wednesday" Let's do this! What we're eating this week... So far this week we have made: Wings on the Pit Boss Slow Cooker Pineapple Pork Chops You can't get any easier than wings and chops! Especially when they are on the grill and slow cooker!! What I'm Reminiscing About... Septembers past: September is Trey's birth month. It is also the month that my grandpa died four years ago. This is the year that Papa gave Trey a gun for his birthday. He was so proud to give it to Trey and you can tell by the look on Trey's face how happy he was. Such a sweet moment to remember. Our county fair is also in September. My kids used to love it when they were younger. They still love rides, just not the traveling kind :) This was Wrenley's school picture last year. She has grown so much in one year :) What I'm Loving... Makena and my mom have started mak...

Be Her: When Our Ideal Self Becomes an Idol

 Ella Langley's "Be Her" got me thinking about something I think a lot of women struggle with- the woman we think we should be.  You know her. She's more disciplined. More confident. More put together. She exercises, keeps the house clean, reads her Bible every morning, never loses her patience, and somehow always has good hair. We tell ourselves, If I could just be her..... And there's nothing wrong with wanting to grow. But what happens when the woman we want to become turns into an idol? Sometimes we become so focused on our ideal self that we forget to ask God who He wants us to become. There's a subtle difference between praying, "Lord, make me more like Christ," and saying, "Lord, help me to become the woman I've decided I need to be." One is surrender. The other can easily become control.  Philippians 1:6 reminds us that He which hath begun a good work in you will perform it until the day of Jesus Christ. God isn't waiting fo...
