Happy 15th Birthday, Makena!!

Happy Birthday to my sweet Makena Faith! Fifteen years....you're old😉 More like I'm old! It seems like just yesterday we were bringing you home from the hospital. You are currently in to watching Netflix, basketball, football, and baseball. You are still playing your musical instruments, but probably play your ukelele and guitar the most. You are a great big sister to Trey, and you try hard to be a great little sister to Carlie...😅😅
You are a blessing from above and we are so thankful for you.
Even though we didn't get to spend your birthday at the beach this year, I think you still had a great one. Carlie and Trey got donuts for breakfast and brought you a balloon. We just couldn't wait for your party to give you your presents, so you got them at breakfast. We went into town and ate at Subway (your favorite) with Daddy for lunch and then came home to open more presents at Nanny's. After work, Daddy grilled hamburgers and then we went back to Nanny and Pop's for your party!!
You got lots of cool things: an Amazon card, a tablet, a flamingo phone case, a visa card, money, a bath bomb with a ring inside, a bluetooth fidgit spinner that lights up (so cool), a Razorback t-shirt, a Razorback garden gnome, earrings, a necklace, and last but not least, Razorback football tickets.
Makena and Mommy 15 years ago!

And now😊

Some of her breakfast goodies!

Opening presents first thing.

Maybe she was making a wish?

Blow out those candles!

Happy Birthday, and MANY MORE!!

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...

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 am linking up with  Andrea  and  Erika  for another Friday Favorites. This is going to be a rapid-fire Friday favorites because it is getting late and I have to wake up extra early to pick up a special little girl :) The said little girl! Nobody ever told me how much you love your grandbabies! Spending time with Wrenley is always one of my favorites💗 Another one of my favorite things is watching Makena present. This time she was on her "home turf". She did a presentation on The Stuttgart Army Airfield for a historical group at our community center. They had their biggest turnout for a meeting because Makena has so many people who support her and love her. We are thankful for everyone who came. Of course she did a great job. I'm always proud of her. It is always a favorite any time I get a video or picture of my grandson, Wesley. I can't wait until June! My gentle giant, Boone, wanting to do his favorite thing: GO OUTSIDE! Makena ...
