Weekend Recap


We took a field trip to Memphis TN for the Mid-South Farm and Gin Show.
The kids had a good time and it was nice to be away from home!

Carl's nephew, Riley and some of his buddies were there too!

My parents :)

Saturday morning we were back to bowling!
Makena had a rough day.

She kept a good attitude about it, though!

Carlie played a couple of good games, but bombed one. 
She blamed it on having to wear her glasses!

She is a lot more comfortable around the other kids...now that we only have two weeks left!

T-Man did great this week. He had his own lane and I think that helped.

Somehow I always end up riding home with the girls.
Carl and Trey had some outside work to do at the church, so they hurried home and the girls and I grabbed some lunch and did a little shopping.

Saturday afternoon we made a quick decision to go fishing.

No, it wasn't really warm enough for shorts and sleeveless...I was wearing capri's and a jacket...but what do I know. Surely the 16 year old must be more wise than me!

Trey was the only one of us to catch a fish. 
He was proud😊
We were happy too because he would have complained the whole time if somebody else had caught one and he didn't 

It was a nice weekend that ended with church. Carl started getting sick Sunday (Makena had a cold all last week) and slept most of the afternoon. I am ready for warm weather, and I don't mean spring.  I'm ready for swimming, the beach, and most of all NO FLU!

Much Love,
Beth

Friday Favorites

  Happy Friday, friends! Today I'm linking up with  Andrea  and  Erika  for another Friday favorites. And here they are in no particular order: Last week our preacher told us that he had a surprise for us next week.  I had honestly forgotten about it until Carl mentioned at lunch on Sunday.  Trey said he knew what it was, but he wasn't telling.  It still didn't occur to me what it could be until we arrived at church on Sunday night, and I saw that Trey had a notebook along with his Bible sitting next to him on our pew.  It was him. Trey was the surprise.  He gave a short devotion before our Business Meeting.  He did well, considering it was his first time.  He said the congregation was a lot scarier when you are the one being stared at! This is a big deal because about 7 months ago he realized that he needed Jesus as his Savior.  And that came after about 7 months of me worrying about him, while he was trying to stretch hi...

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...
