Summer is the Best!

Everyone knows I love summer.  The beach, pool, warm weather, the smell of sunscreen, sleeping in, and pretty much NO SCHEDULES!  I try to add a few educational things in and we will soon be making a trip to Barnes and Noble and the library to find some new books, but for now, we are working a few things we already have at home.
Like dissecting the cows eye!
(out in the shop, of course!)

Ya'll...I do not care to see the optic nerve, cornea, or any other part of this eye.
It really isn't seeing that bothers me so much...

The smell seriously makes me want to puke!!
We also finally built and activated Trey's volcano, but for some reason I can't get the pictures to load.
It is so NOT what it appears to be on the box!!  I was expecting some kind of big eruption...that didn't happen. It sort of spewed out.  Disappointing to say the least!
It wouldn't be summer without swimming in the pool...almost EVERY. SINGLE. DAY!! 

Trey looked like a nerdy tourist!

Noah and Trey under their "palm tree", lol

Carlie was getting some sun!

Makena hates when I take her picture!

I stole Carl's Sanders hat :)

I took a picture of Trey under the water with my phone.
It hasn't been the same since....will barely charge and won't hold charge for long.
I may have to bite the bullet and get another one sooner than I had planned!!

And another one!

Eli wanted his picture too ;)

Shelby, Makena Faith, and Eli (always has his tongue sticking out!)

Trey, jumping

Noah David

Eli, doing a twist (?)

Me and Sadie Lou

We have a busy week ahead of us between dentist appointments, doctors appointments, a piano recital, Father's Day, and VBS decorating!! 
After a week with preschool kids, we will be ready for vacation!! 

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

 It's been a hot minute since I've linked up with  Andrea  and  Erika  for a Friday Favorites! This is me trying to get back into my blogging groove :) I came across this little dress last year when we moved, and I knew it would be fit Wrenley this summer! It was Makena's circa 2004.  I just love it when a plan comes together.  A favorite for sure! Look at those babies. Twenty years has flown by. Miss Wrenley Beth. She doesn't look a thing like her momma, but definitely has Aunt Makena's sass! Hopefully as her hair grows, she will get Carlie's curls. We have been doing as much outdoor activities as possible.  That includes one of my favorite things...fishing! Carl, showing off his big bass. We weren't technically bass fishing, but whatever bites. It'll eat! Of course we have also been going to the river.  Our kids weren't able to go with us, so we just took the jet ski.   It has been raining so the water is a gross brown. I didn't s...
