School Days

Well today we started our first day of 11th, 10th, and 6th grade!



We had a great day and no major ordeal!! Everyone worked super hard and we were finished by 1:30 or 2. From now on the videos for each lesson will be a little longer, but today they gave them a break☺
Trey is taking the normal subjects for his grade: Bible, Arithmetic, Reading, Language, Spelling, Creative Writing, New World History,  Science, and Art.
Makena is taking mostly 10th grade classes with the exception of U.S. History, which is 11th grade. So her classes are: Bible Doctrines, Plane Geometry, U.S. History, English/Lit 10, Spanish I,  and Biology.
Carlie is taking easier classes this year because she took a lot of junior and senior classes her Freshman year when she was in private school. So her classes this year are: Hebrew History (Bible), Plane Geometry (she and Makena are doing a class together for the first time!!), World History, English/Lit 11, Business Math, and Physics. 
I am slightly nervous about Physics...for me, not Carlie! She whizzed through Chemistry like nobody's business, I just do not have ANY experience with it! I wasn't even required to take Chemistry in high school because I took Biology II, which was an honors class. This should be her last science to take☺
We have been getting lots of stuff in the mail about college days at different schools. I know this is the year to start visiting colleges. We are planning to go to UAM, Central Baptist, and possibly Ole Miss. It is all going too fast and I just want to push pause...but I can't. So I pray every night for God to lay on our hearts where she needs to be and ask him to (slowly) prepare me for the changes to come.
Having a yummy breakfast of farm fresh eggs, bacon, and toast☺

Pop with the kiddos. My mom was actually there too, she was just taking a picture.

Grammy came down early to see the kids. This tradition started way back when Carlie started Kindergarten!

I love the sticker I bought for my Yeti earlier in the summer 😊
We are raising arrows here at the Munger Homestead!


Here's to a fantastic start to the 2017-2018 school year!

Much Love,

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!...

Red Flags: Guarding Our Hearts & Our Churches

 Scripture tells us that shepherds are entrusted with God's flock, no for selfish gain but "being examples to the flock" (1 Peter 5:3). A pastor's calling is a holy one, rooted in humility, sacrifice, and love. But Jesus also warned that not every shepherd has pure intentions--some are "wolves in sheep's clothing" (Matthew 7:15).  As believers, we must stay discerning. Here are some red flags to watch out for in pastors: 1.  Special Treatment for Certain Families  James warns against showing partiality (James 2:1-4), yet some pastors cater to certain families, wealthy donors, or influential members while neglecting the rest of the body. Christ doesn't play favorites--every soul in the church matters equally to Him. A true shepherd cares for the unnoticed as much as the well-known. 2. Neglecting the Brokenhearted  Jesus came to heal the brokenhearted (Luke 4:18), but a pastor who avoids the messy, hurting, or less "influential" people in th...

Back To School Photo Shoot

The girls have been begging me since yesterday to take some pictures of them in some of their new outfits but yesterday the weather was kinda iffy as to if was going to rain (never did) and we would have had to fix hair before....and that just didn't really fit into our day, so I told them after church would work.  I would have never guessed how sleepy I would have been after not enough sleep due to Carlie's stomach issues and the fact that I took sinus medicine before I went to bed thought I was going to bed at 11:00.  Needless to say,  could hardly keep my eyes open during church.  I was seriously thinking of finding an empty room and taking a nap until church was over!  Instead, I waited until after we ate lunch (leftovers from last night!) and cleaned up.  I think we finished in record time and I was snoozing away by 12:45 :)  I could hear the kids, so I got up around 2:30 and the first thing Makena asked me was "Can we take pictures now?"....
