Easter Sunday 2018

My three nuggets on the way to church.

Trey with his Sunday School class

Macy, Makena, Ms. Ruby, and Carlie were ready for Sunday School!

Carl leading singing before Sunday School. Doesn't he look handsome?!

Not the best picture of us, but the only person available to take this was my nephew, Noah. He did a good job, the angle was just a little wonky. 

After church we went to the Community Center to have lunch with my Grammy and family. 

My mom brought her dog Toby. He looked so cute in his tie. I told Carlie he was her boyfriend for the day!

I got stuck in between the kids end and the adults.

Makena broke out the Bubble Glove for entertainment. 
They found some old sacks in the attic and had races.

Three legged race was interesting to watch.

Trey and Maxee Parker

Grammy and Papa with the great grandkids

It was a pretty fun day. We had great church services (even though it sounded like a zoo with all of the babies). We got to visit with family at Grammy's that we haven't seen since Christmas and I got a nap before we went back to church! I still felt crappy but I still pushed through. I guess it is Mommy guilt. I just can't let a holiday go by without being traditional. I want my kids to have those memories and know that mama would do whatever it takes to make sure they have good memories, even if she dis feel/look like poo.

It was good for my soul to see Trey play the guitar while Carl and Andrea sang "The Old Rugged Cross". They did a great job and I don't think he messed up at all. These are the memories I will forever cherish. Thank you God for my salvation, my family, and your church. I would be lost without them.

"He is not there, He is risen!"
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!...

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 ...

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...
