Weekend Fun

Hey friends! I took a little break last week, partly due to the events of the week and partly due to some health issues. I am feeling a little better but still not 100% and we aren't for sure as to what's going on. So how was your weekend? Ours was pretty laid back. Here are a few pictures:
Trey and Talan made a pool in the back of Talan's Kawasaki. It was pretty funny but there wasn't really any room for two 🤣  so they drove over to my parents to swim.

Find this little guy in the front yard before the rain came in. And as you can see, he/she wasn't little at.all. 

A storm was brewing  

I was able to spend about an hour at the pool by myself on Saturday.  My mom and Makena went to buy groceries for my grandparents, Carl and Trey got haircuts (PTL), and Carlie was at work. It was nice for about the first 30 minutes. The silence was almost deafening. 

First Carlie came, then my mom, Makena, and my dad. We had a fun swim and an ice cream. Because swimming and ice cream just go together, don't they?!

Toby also decided he wanted in!

On Saturday night Carl fixed burgers on the Blackstone. He may have a somewhat unhealthy obsession with this thing. I mean, he could spend hours watching YouTube videos of some guy cooking on one. I don't get it, BUT I like that it inspires him because that means I don't have to cook! On Sunday he decided to fix breakfast outside (except the biscuits). Fine with me! We didn't have to go to church smelling like Bro. and Sis. Bacon. I like Sunday morning big breakfasts but I do not like smelling like it at church!

We went back to swim on Sunday evening. Trey jumps like this almost every time but especially if he thinks you don't want to get wet. He's a great diver and can cannon ball like nobody's business but this makes the biggest, hardest splash.

Toby was my floating buddy.

It was a great cool down to a hot day.

And it was a pretty great weekend even if I wasn't feeling the best. 


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...
