BOO!

Happy Halloween!
Our Halloween was a cold one but thankfully not a wet one. Our church held its annual trunk or treat but before all of that we had a full morning of grocery shopping and school! We had a few tests to take and made it a little more spooky we listened to our favorite Halloween playlist on Spotify via our friend Alexa. 
After we finished that task the kids helped me stuff my candy bags. 
Trey kept telling me that I was being chinch with my bags. I told him he was over filling his. We compromised. 
Carlie came home in time for trunk or treat but opted not to decorate her car. Makena didn't dress up but did decorate her trunk and give out her own candy. At the last minute I decided that Carl and I would go as a deer hunter and deer.  Makena did my make-up and hair (and she did a great job). Trey wasn't really interested in dressing up this year either. He said he just came for the chili. 
I started getting sick Tuesday evening with a terrible headache and sore throat. I was also dealing with a cough and major congestion so Carl and Trey set up one of their pop-up blinds for my trunk (I am currently without a car) . Well, I felt so bad and it was so cold that the deer ended up in the blind (with the Buddy heater), handing out candy. It worked. I did my duty, then I went home, showered, and went to bed. I was dunzo.

She had lights on her car and her sign read, "if the stars were made to worship, so will I". It looked so good in the dark...of course I didn't get any pictures of that because I was feeling like poo and my phone died.

A Halloween throw back.

I was sick until Monday. It was rough stuff. Trey had a touch of it but thankfully no one else got it. Carl was off all weekend (thanks to the rain) so he was able to take Trey on the youth hunt. Trey missed a doe but they got lots of bonding time!

                                                             
I have no new pictures of Carlie but this is what I get when I ask her what she is doing when she's in LR:
 Really, Carls... 
She is still a busy little bee. Usually when I call her after clinicals she is super excited...except when she has to wear a lead vest for 6 hours. I love to hear the excitement in her voice when she says, "I was elbow deep in a man's stomach!". I'm so proud of her. 
We are so close to the end of harvest we can almost taste it. If the rain holds off it could be over by Wednesday. I know it will be a huge relief to everyone. 
That was pretty much our Halloween week/weekend. Mostly sickly with a little bit of fun. 

Much Love,
Beth

Friday Favorites

 Happy Friday, Friends! Today I'm linking up with  Andrea  and  Erika  for another Friday Favorites. What a week it has been! Having picnics with Wrenley and Makena were pretty high up on my favorites list. She wanted a lunchable (big surprise there!) while Makena and I had tuna salad. Playing outside is a must with Wrenley! And she loves making sure the bird bath has plenty of water! Another thing on my favorites list is listening to Trey play the guitar. This smile is also my favorite! We had a celebration for my son-in-law, Caleb this week. He is a pretty great guy and we are thankful that he is "ours" now :)  He is my favorite son-in-law! As I was studying for my Gospel Project lesson earlier this week I realized we only have 3 more lessons! That means that summer break is just 3 weeks away (for our Wednesday night program)! Although I will still have to prepare lessons for Sunday School and VBS.  Summer is my favorite! This summer will be extra sp...

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 ...
