Senior Sunday

Whew, I made it through my first "hand-me-a-hankie" event of this graduation season.  I am happy to say that it wasn't so bad. My anxiety leading up to Senior Sunday was a little off the charts. Well, a lot off the charts!  Here are few of the pictures from our fun day!!

Our pastor, Bro Adam with Dezirae and Carlie.

The cake. It was honestly the most delicious cake I have ever eaten.

Sisters!
If you haven't noticed yet, we had a Mexican theme for Cinco de Mayo!
Taco Bout A Grad!!
We had tacos and nachos with all the fixins.

Carlie at her table.
The hubs brought these pallets from work.
It was kind of a last minute thought, but I think it turned out nicely. 

A better look at the table.

Brent and his parents came.
They are such sweet peolle.
His mom, Mary, is the main reason I have mist of the pictures.

It was such a blessed day to be able to spend time with those who love our Carlie. She felt all the love and I know she is thankful for the support her family and church family have given her over the last 18 years. My prayer as her mother is that she will always keep God first in her life; always follow His lead. There is no better place to be than in the center of His will. She has been taught right from wrong. Now it's up to her.  No, I'm not kicking her out or anything like that! She will just be spending less time in my presence and will have more time to make her own choices. We are so proud of you Carlie! You are smart, beautiful, and sweet. 
 Spread those wings baby girl! But never forget where you came from or to whom you belong.

Much Love, 
Beth

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 ...
