Memorial Day Weekend


We had such a great holiday weekend. Carl was off (with the exception of a few hours from his side gig), the weather was pretty great, and we had some amazing food!

I found these new banners in a closet from last year and Trey and I decided to decorate a little. I'm not real sure why the cushion is off of my chair.

On Friday night we grilled brats and hot dogs.

We went for a Ranger ride around our property.

The we cruised out to the farm

And Trey drove us to our most favorite undisclosed spot.

Saw Sr. 2020 written so we had to take a photo

When we made it back home we made s'mores 

 

On Saturday, after Carl and Trey came back from mowing and Carlie got home from work, we hung out at the pool.

Makena Faith and her Pop.

After our swim we grilled burgers.

Caleb came out for a little while.

Toby is everyone's favorite dog!

On Sunday we went to church and we actually had lunch at our own home! Caleb had to work so it was just the five of us. We had our old stand-by, tacos. 
Back to the pool we went!!

Carlie didn't want to get in the pool with us, so it was just the three of us.

After a swim I came back and took a nap. I never thought I'd be one of those people who needed a nap on Sunday afternoons! Guess that only means one thing: I'm old!!
I woke up 30 minutes before we had to be at church.
Afterwards me, my mom, and the girls went to get pizzas and you guessed it, went back out to the pool!

Pop, Makena Faith, and Nanny

Carlie Erin

Trey, Carl, and Tim were watching the new Sturches new puppy, Honey Rose.

And just like that the weekend was over. We had such a good time hanging out together!

Much Love,
Beth

Friday Favorites

  Happy Friday, friends! Today I'm linking up with  Andrea  and  Erika  for another Friday favorites. And here they are in no particular order: Last week our preacher told us that he had a surprise for us next week.  I had honestly forgotten about it until Carl mentioned at lunch on Sunday.  Trey said he knew what it was, but he wasn't telling.  It still didn't occur to me what it could be until we arrived at church on Sunday night, and I saw that Trey had a notebook along with his Bible sitting next to him on our pew.  It was him. Trey was the surprise.  He gave a short devotion before our Business Meeting.  He did well, considering it was his first time.  He said the congregation was a lot scarier when you are the one being stared at! This is a big deal because about 7 months ago he realized that he needed Jesus as his Savior.  And that came after about 7 months of me worrying about him, while he was trying to stretch hi...

Friday Favorites

 It's been a hot minute since I've linked up with  Andrea  and  Erika  for a Friday Favorites! This is me trying to get back into my blogging groove :) I came across this little dress last year when we moved, and I knew it would be fit Wrenley this summer! It was Makena's circa 2004.  I just love it when a plan comes together.  A favorite for sure! Look at those babies. Twenty years has flown by. Miss Wrenley Beth. She doesn't look a thing like her momma, but definitely has Aunt Makena's sass! Hopefully as her hair grows, she will get Carlie's curls. We have been doing as much outdoor activities as possible.  That includes one of my favorite things...fishing! Carl, showing off his big bass. We weren't technically bass fishing, but whatever bites. It'll eat! Of course we have also been going to the river.  Our kids weren't able to go with us, so we just took the jet ski.   It has been raining so the water is a gross brown. I didn't s...
