Weekend Recap

It was another chilly morning at the soccer field

Soccer Saturdays are almost over :(
We scooted back so the building would block the wind a little bit.

We had a housewarming at our church for my cousin Shane.

He's the one in the black shirt.

I love this cake!  It was pretty tasty too!

I couldn't resist a picture of this precious Peyton :)

Carl and Trey were busy planting food plots this weekend.

Trey loves that he is finally able to help (and by help I mean drive the tractor!).

We had a pretty laid back weekend.  Carl is finally done with the 2016 Harvest!!  We couldn't be more happy around here.  We don't have to worry about him getting home at 8:00 p.m. or later every night or filling in our Saturdays without him.....I may be the most excited :)
Soccer Saturdays are almost over.  Trey has three more games over the next two weeks and that will be it!  I am a little sad to see it go.  We are still debating on if we are going to play city league basketball or not.  I'm a little apprehensive about it....we have only played with Christian school teams and sometimes that was bad enough.  I specifically remember one night the Christian school we attended played a city league team at their gym and one of the coaches was drunk!  I'm not sure what ever happened with that, but I'm not real crazy about the idea of someone like that being T's coach.  We are still praying about it.
Makena Faith is getting better.  She is hardly taking any pain meds at all and can be up for a little longer at a time.  She thought she was going to pop some stitches watching that Razorback game Saturday night.  She is a HUGE Hog fan and is extremely vocal during the games!! She was also able to go to church yesterday.  We didn't attempt Sunday School, but I know that by next week she will be good to go.
Over all, I think we had a great weekend! 

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...
