Weekend Recap: July Fourth Edition

We started our weekend off with some family time at the pool.

T was cooling off after spending the afternoon mowing.

Carlie and Caleb chilling on the steps.

Makena had a butterfly friend.

Carl was blowing bubbles!

My parents hung out with us too.

Pop and Makena were talking about 70's music.

Well, it looks like this is as close as I'm gonna get to the beach this year: the White River.

We took the boat out for a spin after dinner Friday evening. It was so peaceful!

We found a sand bar!

There were barely any last year, so you can imagine our excitement.

If you have followed along with us very long, you'll know that he is our clown. Always doing his best to make people laugh!

Everyone was getting festive!

We slept in on Saturday morning and then went over to my parents for a fish fry.

Mr. Cool

Miss Sassy

Color changing cups are added fun

It was only my crew today.

We were out for about 45 minutes before the clouds came...then it rained all afternoon.

So we went home and took a nap 😊

And a photoshoot with my girls. Linda wasn't thrilled.

And we fixed some hot dogs, brats, and jalapeño poppers. They were delish!

My three nuggets.

Trey is finally taller than both of his big sisters.

I love him so much❤

My parents and grandparents came to watch fireworks at our house.

Happy Independence Day!!

Much Love,

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...

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 ...
