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

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...

Friday Favorites

 Happy Friday, Friends! Today I'm linking up with  Andrea  and  Erika  for another Friday Favorites. What a week it has been! Having picnics with Wrenley and Makena were pretty high up on my favorites list. She wanted a lunchable (big surprise there!) while Makena and I had tuna salad. Playing outside is a must with Wrenley! And she loves making sure the bird bath has plenty of water! Another thing on my favorites list is listening to Trey play the guitar. This smile is also my favorite! We had a celebration for my son-in-law, Caleb this week. He is a pretty great guy and we are thankful that he is "ours" now :)  He is my favorite son-in-law! As I was studying for my Gospel Project lesson earlier this week I realized we only have 3 more lessons! That means that summer break is just 3 weeks away (for our Wednesday night program)! Although I will still have to prepare lessons for Sunday School and VBS.  Summer is my favorite! This summer will be extra sp...
