Gulf Shores 2018

We made a quick trip to Gulf Shores, AL last week and had a blast! Of course it wasn't nearly long enough, but I think all five of us made our time count.  Carlie is still our little group activity leader. She likes to browse venues and suggest things that we all might like to do.  I shutter to think about our family vacations as we know them ending soon.  If all goes as planned (haha) she will be starting the Baptist Health School at the beginning of next July.  It is a scary thought for this Mama, but more on that in another post!
We left early Monday morning and came back Thursday night.  Carl and Carlie both worked on Friday...boo! I think that is the shortest time Carl has been off for vacation, EVER. 
 Here are a few pictures I took while we were down on the coast. Due to our circumstances, I was determined to spend more time enjoying my family than taking pictures of my family enjoying vacation, does that make sense?
Ready to be out of Mississippi!

When you've been riding so long and you are extremely bored, you give yourself a mustache!

Finally out of Mississippi..I swear it is really the size of Texas!

Carlie Erin got this nifty frisbee because she got a kids meal at Sea n Suds. It is one of our favorite places to eat in GS.


These two spent countless hours on the balcony!

Until next time...

Back through the tunnel we go.

We had an enjoyable trip and made lots of memories!

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

 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 ...
