Twenty Facts About Me

Hey there! I know I have several new readers so I'll start off with a quick little introduction.
My name is Beth. I am a married mom of three (ages 19, 17, and 14). I started this blog twelve years ago (wow!) as a scrapbook. I don't post fashion or beauty content because let's face it, that isn't really my jam. Oh, and popular opinions aren't really important to me either.
So now that all of the niceties are out of the way, let's go on to the twenty facts, shall we?


  1. I am a sinner saved by grace. I make mistakes and am in need of Jesus (and His forgiveness) daily. 
  2. I have been married to my sweet hubby for 20 years (will be 21 Mar.27). We married when we were 19 and almost 21.
  3. We had all three of our children in a 5 year time frame and would have definitely had more if I hadn't had my tubes tied. Fertility was never an issue!
  4. As a child I attended school in five different elementary schools around the state of Arkansas (my dad changed jobs often for a while). 
  5. I have lived in the same house all of my married life!
  6. My family is very important to me. 
  7. I am very transparent. I cannot hide how I feel.
  8. I attended college for four years and have no degree. I was set to graduate on Carlie's due date but was put on bedrest 8 weeks before due to high blood pressure. After she was born it just wasn't a priority to me anymore. 
  9. I love to read.
  10. I love to watch murder mysteries and true crime tv.
  11. Summer is my favorite season with fall coming in a close second.
  12. Spending time with my chickens de-stresses me.
  13. I would love to own a ranch: cows, sheep, pigs, & chickens.
  14. Midwifery has always peeked my interest. I think it mostly stems from the fact that my grandmother helped birth many babies (her religion doesn't believe in going to doctors). 
  15. I am an ex-vaxxer. My girls are fully immunized and my son had most of his...just not on the recommended schedule. The more I learn, the more I back away from  them. I definitely think mandatory vaccinations are a "no".
  16. I teach a preschool class at church on Wednesday nights and I love it!
  17. Homeschooling is one of the best decisions I have ever made! The freedom and opportunities are endless!
  18. I am a procrastinator and do my best work last-minute 🤣
  19. I struggle with anxiety and depression. 
  20. My favorite color is red.
That's it. Those are twenty (very random) facts about me. If you are new here, welcome! I'd love to have you stick around.

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 ...
