Farm Safety Day 2016

Trey, Atticus, and Braden

We learned about being safe with electricity.

They got to wear some of the gloves that linemen use when fixing and working with electricity.

We also learned about boating safety.
Trey got to be a demonstrator :)
He liked the attention.

This was our gun safety instructor.
He was a little bit of a grouch.  Party pooper!!

Here we learned about germs.  It was fittingly named, "Germ City".

Trey and the other kids learning about tractor and lawnmower safety.

Can you see Bubba in the background?  The main lesson here was "Don't be a Bubba"!  Pay attention when you're around machinery.

Here was our fire safety instructor.  I didn't get to watch it because they piled the whole group in that little trailer for the lecture and then filled it with "smoke" and let them climb out of the back window.

I guess you would call this class animal safety. The kiddos got to handle a baby alligator and touch some snakes.  It wasn't really my favorite, but they all seemed to like it.

I caught Trey touching the alligator.

Well, folks I made it through my last Farm Safety Day!  I have been to it will all three of my kids over a period of five years and not a lot has changed!  Trey was however, the only one that has been homeschooled.  We signed up and went all on our own and they put us in a group with the private school kids, so Trey got to be with some of his buddies from school.  There are three main private schools in the area, and two of them seem to have nice kids.  There is one in the area (that will remain nameless) whose kids were so snobbish....and it is supposed to be a Christian School! If you're kids are as mean to others as I saw them be, you got some work to do.  I am extremely glad that Trey won't have to deal with that everyday. 
Maybe I was just tired, maybe I'm getting old, but one thing I know for sure, I am glad that I do not have to go back to one of these!!!

It was fun to spend a day with Trey!

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

 Woo Hoo, it's Friday! Just last week I was talking about how this month is flying by, but this week has moved at a snail's pace! Today, I am linking up with  Andrea  and  Erika  for Friday Favorites. I have been working on my fitness for about a year now, more seriously in the past 6 months. One thing I've worked on is getting my daily protein in. I tried the built puff protein bars a while ago and they are wonderful, but earlier this week I found the sour puffs, and wow, those things are surprisingly amazing!! I've also taken the new year to do a little more for myself. I started ordering from Nuuly (a monthly clothing subscription). I have found serveral brands that I have wanted to try. There is no pressure to buy anything. You just simply pick 6 items, wear them for the month and send it back and then pick 6 more items (of course, you can purchase if you like). This is a new favorite of mine. At the end of November I bought tickets to the Jason Aldean conce...

 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 ...
