Let's Party!

Well my niece  and nephews came down Friday night and the kids have had such a good time hanging out and just being together. We celebrated Ellie's Birthday this weekend because we won't get to see her on her actual birthday.
This is Ellie's BFF from Stuttgart, Destiny. 
There were several kids at her party but really she would have been fine if only Destiny showed up!

Some of the kids. People were everywhere. The boys didn't want to be with the girls so they were wherever the girls weren't!

For about the 4th year in a row, Ellie had a cowgirl themed party.

Papa and Carl

Blow out those candles, sweet girl!
I hope all of your wishes come true😊

Cowboy Eli!

The Birthday Princess got her present from Nanny and Pop on Friday. Of course she needed a hover board like boys!



Carlie tried out EK's skates that light up.

All of the girl grandkids. 
They were happy to be together again.

Because I'm probably already saying more than I should I will keep this short: Divorce is so ugly y'all. Children are not pawns in a game. They are precious beings that have to suffer the most..not because of anything they have done but because of the bad choices their parents have made. That's right, I said PARENTS. There is rarely a time when things are one-sided. The devil is real and so are his attacks on the family unit. 
I am thankful for this weekend and the time we were able to spend with Noah, Eli, and Ellie Kate. God knows what is best for them and you can bet your bottom dollar that this Auntie has everyone I can think of storming heaven on their behalf. God is faithful and His promises are true. Thank you, Jesus!

Much Love,
Beth

What's Up Wednesday

 Happy What's Up Wednesday! Today I am linking up with  Shay  and  Sheaffer  for another "What's Up Wednesday" Let's do this! What we're eating this week... So far this week we have made: Wings on the Pit Boss Slow Cooker Pineapple Pork Chops You can't get any easier than wings and chops! Especially when they are on the grill and slow cooker!! What I'm Reminiscing About... Septembers past: September is Trey's birth month. It is also the month that my grandpa died four years ago. This is the year that Papa gave Trey a gun for his birthday. He was so proud to give it to Trey and you can tell by the look on Trey's face how happy he was. Such a sweet moment to remember. Our county fair is also in September. My kids used to love it when they were younger. They still love rides, just not the traveling kind :) This was Wrenley's school picture last year. She has grown so much in one year :) What I'm Loving... Makena and my mom have started mak...

Monday Morning Chit-Chat

  Happy Monday, friends! Well, here we are again. Another Monday morning, another fresh week, and another cup of coffee that I'm hoping will magically give me the energy to accomplish all the things on my to-do list. Spoiler alert: It probably won't. But I'm going to drink it anyway. I thought we would start this week with a little old-fashioned chit-chat. Nothing too serious, nothing life changing. Just a little catching up on life lately, a few random thoughts, and whatever else happens to pop into my head. you know, the kind of conversation we'd have if you stopped by my house, pulled up a chair, and stayed a while. So grab your coffee (or whatever gets you going in the morning), and let's visit. First things first...it's October! This year is absolutely flying by. I love this time of year. The cozy evenings, the fall decorations, the soups and comfort foods, and the excuse to stay home in my pajamas a little longer. Now if Arkansas could just get the memo t...

Be Her: When Our Ideal Self Becomes an Idol

 Ella Langley's "Be Her" got me thinking about something I think a lot of women struggle with- the woman we think we should be.  You know her. She's more disciplined. More confident. More put together. She exercises, keeps the house clean, reads her Bible every morning, never loses her patience, and somehow always has good hair. We tell ourselves, If I could just be her..... And there's nothing wrong with wanting to grow. But what happens when the woman we want to become turns into an idol? Sometimes we become so focused on our ideal self that we forget to ask God who He wants us to become. There's a subtle difference between praying, "Lord, make me more like Christ," and saying, "Lord, help me to become the woman I've decided I need to be." One is surrender. The other can easily become control.  Philippians 1:6 reminds us that He which hath begun a good work in you will perform it until the day of Jesus Christ. God isn't waiting fo...
