January Blues

Here we are at the end of January and this is only my third post. January is my very least favorite month. I think it is partly because it is the "dead of winter " and partly because I have suffered from seasonal depression for most of my adult life. I need sunshine and warm weather and even though I now take medication for it, I still struggle. I guess the fact the sun has been out for about 5 days the whole month has attributed to my blues and my absence from blogging. Here are a few pictures to catch you up.
Trey and Sadie were checking out the snow!

He did not throw that at me

Carl and the kids

Me with the kids

Getting our groove back!

Carl, my Dad, and Trey got to go on a guided hunting trip.
Usually Carl plays guide at the farm :)

T-Man and his buddies made the paper

Carlie was getting a little coaching.

Finally got some of Makena's instruments hung up

The Munger Family with Miss Ellie Kate

Makena had fun at EK's birthday party.

Carlie was very nervous about walking the beam!

Trey loved jumping in the pit.

Another Saturday morning bowling session. Makena decided to join this week!!

Cute kids, ugly Sunday morning.

Carlie tries to help Makena with her Algebra, Trey is working on his space project, and Makena is showing off her new apron for her Family Consumer Sciences class.
That's All Folks!

Friday Favorites

  Today I'm linking up with  Andrea  and  Erika  for the first Friday Favorites of 2025! Over the past three weeks, I have thoroughly enjoyed getting to spend more time with Wrenley. She is growing up so much. She is speaking in full sentences and is a clown to boot! We've enjoyed lots of naps in BeBe's bed, playing with baby dolls (one of her favorite things), and since I have to pick her up before 7 a.m. on the days she stays with me, we enjoy getting her favorites: donuts (nonuts) and hotcakes from McDonald's -not at the same time though! Snug as a bug in a rug! She loves her Ky Ky Another favorite is a clean kitchen! We have had our house in a bit of chaos like I'm sure everyone else has with all the holiday festivities (and with Carl being off). I am glad to have everything in its proper place! That ray of sunshine is therapy for my soul! The next thing on my favorites list is Carl's chili. We had it last night and will probably have leftovers for a few day...

Friday Favorites

 Happy January 74th! Ok but really, why does January seem to go on FOREVER?! Today I am linking up with  Andrea  and  Erika  for Friday Favorites! This was definitely a favorite moment from this week!  Our 47th President, Donald J. Trump! Since Monday was also MLK day, I had the pleasure of watching sweet Wrenley.  Celebrating my niece, Ellie Kate's 15th birthday was definitely a favorite! I also watched Wrenley on Wednesday because she was a little under the weather. She had fun playing and getting lots of ice cream and popsicles! Wrenley will always be my favorite. On this day she wanted to "work" like BeBe. She's so precious, even with her little bedhead! Good Music is a favorite. Play some old-school country music and we are golden :) My favorite meal this week. It seems like forever since I made a home-cooked meal! Cajun baked chicken, corn (because Trey loves corn), broccoli, mashed potatoes with white gravy, and rolls were on the menu, and every...

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!...
