January Favorites

Praise the Lord it is finally January 31st (insert me doing a happy dance). There should definitely be a song about how long it seems to be every. year. I mean we already have "Wake Me Up When September Ends" and "Long December", why not Everlasting January or something like that?!
 Ok, so I've rambled enough. Here are some of my favorites for the month of January!
First and foremost are my new cowboy boots that I received as a Christmas present. I love them! 

Next are my fringe booties. For some reason I have been on a southwest/cowboy kick lately!

I have also been loving this puffy jacket in the color misty pink.
It is very cozy and super cute!

Ok, let's talk beauty products for a few...
This eye cream by Clinique is the bomb! 

Don't laugh too hard at my "old lady" cream! I like this because unlike so many other moisturizers, it isn't oily! Just because my skin may get dry in the winter doesn't mean I want it greasy oily! 

Yall...this stuff smells so good (Rose), it leaves your hair super soft, and it is pretty😊😊
But mainly the first two things. My girls love it too!

These pens though! I use these for my planners and also for grading or correcting school work. They write well and seem to last for a good while. 

Now for some of our favorite TV shows. 
Chrisley Knows Best is definitely one of my guilty pleasures!
It's just so darn funny! Carl wouldn't admit it, but he watches it too!

Carlie and Trey got me hooked on this one. 
The new episodes start next Tuesday and we will be watching!

Ok, so I got over the Duggars after all of the scandalous activity with Josh.
I then started watching the TLC show about the big family (The Willises) with all the singing kids which ended abruptly after, you guessed it, a sexual scandal. So I have sworn off of TLC!  
The Bates are a very conservative Christian family with 19 kids and seem to be scandal free but only time will tell! I have watched them since they appeared with the Duggars, so it is kind of neat to see them all grown up.

Here is the book I was talking about in my last post. Great read. I was reminded of things that I have known for years and I was also encouraged and inspired to put some things into my daily prayers. 

This is also a good one, although I sat it aside temporarily to read the book about praying.


This book was bought for my girls. It is about true beauty and was written by a former Victoria's Secret Model. I haven't started it yet, but I will give it a good once-over before passing it on to them. They also have devotion books that go with it. I'm sure it is fine but you can never be too careful.

And last but not least, Eat That Frog! This is really a book about time management. It kind of goes with the idea that if the first thing you do in the morning is eat a live frog, you can go through your day with the satisfaction of knowing that is probably the worst thing that is going to happen to you that day. Your "Frog " is your biggest most important task, the one that you will most likely procrastinate on if you don't do something about it. It can also be the task with the greatest impact on your life!

So that's it. Those are my favorites for the month of January. 

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...

  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...

 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...
