Fall Is Here!

Pumpkins and Mums mean one thing, FALL IS HERE!!

We were finally able to have a bonfire!

Trey Landon, aka our own little party!

Our fire was HUGE....so huge in fact that it was almost too hot to roast our s'mores!

We had a little fun in Wal-Mart down the Halloween aisle and Trey spent lots of time on his mammal poster.

The T-Train is here!

Peter Von Watson is such a cutie!

Well folks, it finally feels like fall here in the south!  We are likely to still have a few 90 degree temps next week, but we are taking it as it comes and right now it is gorgeous out! 
Of course with cooler temps, comes the need to decorate for fall.  The inside of my house has mostly been done for about 2 weeks now (I was rushing things, I know), but We have been adding to the outside too.  Carl got off early for a couple of days and that was it....still NO RAIN! They started cutting beans yesterday...BOOOO!  I really need a weekend off soon.  Makena will be having her surgery on the tenth so we are needing to hit the Pumpkin Patch next weekend! 
Friday night we were able to have our first bonfire of the season. It was nearly perfect! 
Of course, Saturday was another Soccer Saturday!  Trey had team pictures so we had to be there 30 minutes EARLIER than usual.  I'm just ready to have my Saturday mornings back!  I am glad that he enjoys it, though.  He has been able to be around more kids and seems to adjust to all of these new things well. 
We have a busy week coming up.  Monday, Makena is supposed to take her permit test; on Tuesday, Trey has Farm Safety day (I will be taking him and the girls will be staying with my parents...doing school); we have soccer practice Tuesday night, and church on Wednesday night.  The girls are also working on their background papers for a science project that is due later in the year.
Please ya'll, pray for rain!  We (not just me) really need it at this point.  Everything is extremely dry.

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!...

Friday Favorites

 Happy Friday, friends! Today I am linking up with  Andrea  and  Erika  for another Friday Favorites. This is going to be a rapid-fire Friday favorites because it is getting late and I have to wake up extra early to pick up a special little girl :) The said little girl! Nobody ever told me how much you love your grandbabies! Spending time with Wrenley is always one of my favorites💗 Another one of my favorite things is watching Makena present. This time she was on her "home turf". She did a presentation on The Stuttgart Army Airfield for a historical group at our community center. They had their biggest turnout for a meeting because Makena has so many people who support her and love her. We are thankful for everyone who came. Of course she did a great job. I'm always proud of her. It is always a favorite any time I get a video or picture of my grandson, Wesley. I can't wait until June! My gentle giant, Boone, wanting to do his favorite thing: GO OUTSIDE! Makena ...

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...
