Friday Favorites

 Hey friends! Today I'm linking up with Andrea at Momfessionals for another Friday Favorites! 


Coming back from vacation can sometimes be a bit of a bummer. I was excited to come home because I started my Beachbody MBF program. I woke up and got to my workout first thing....when Tuesday rolled around I felt like I was dying because of all the squats I did. Seriously, I was so sore I couldn't even sit down on the toilet without being in pain. Carl found it hilarious, I did not. Took a muscle realxer and went to bed and praise the Lord, I woke up almost back to normal on Wednesday and I was fully recovered by Thursday! I feel so much better since I started working out. My coach is the sweetest and I have thoroughly enjoyed the experience thus far.
                 Definitely a favorite!

These girls are always a favorite of mine (even when they follow me around the yard like a pack of dogs and steal the cat food from the cats). They are my babies!

River time made it on another Friday Favorites list! We enjoy going out on week day evenings. There are far less people out. We usually have the sandbar to ourselves, I think yesterday we only saw two fishing boats out. It was so peaceful, and actually a little chilly. 
Makena and Trey found some mussel shells (above picture). 

These toes are in need of a pedi but the sand is their favorite place to be.
My favorite kind of showers are baby showers. They are just so much fun..the decorations, and ity bity clothes...all the heart eyes over here! Before anyone freaks out, it will be a small intimate shower with less than 20 people. I have known the mother since she was a year old and we are super excited to celebrate her baby boy, Ryker.

It has been a great week here on the homestead. Some exciting things are in our future and I can't wait to tell you all❤

Much Love,
Beth

Monday Morning Chit-Chat

  Happy Monday, friends! Well, here we are again. Another Monday morning, another fresh week, and another cup of coffee that I'm hoping will magically give me the energy to accomplish all the things on my to-do list. Spoiler alert: It probably won't. But I'm going to drink it anyway. I thought we would start this week with a little old-fashioned chit-chat. Nothing too serious, nothing life changing. Just a little catching up on life lately, a few random thoughts, and whatever else happens to pop into my head. you know, the kind of conversation we'd have if you stopped by my house, pulled up a chair, and stayed a while. So grab your coffee (or whatever gets you going in the morning), and let's visit. First things first...it's October! This year is absolutely flying by. I love this time of year. The cozy evenings, the fall decorations, the soups and comfort foods, and the excuse to stay home in my pajamas a little longer. Now if Arkansas could just get the memo t...

What's Up Wednesday

 Happy What's Up Wednesday! Today I am linking up with  Shay  and  Sheaffer  for another "What's Up Wednesday" Let's do this! What we're eating this week... So far this week we have made: Wings on the Pit Boss Slow Cooker Pineapple Pork Chops You can't get any easier than wings and chops! Especially when they are on the grill and slow cooker!! What I'm Reminiscing About... Septembers past: September is Trey's birth month. It is also the month that my grandpa died four years ago. This is the year that Papa gave Trey a gun for his birthday. He was so proud to give it to Trey and you can tell by the look on Trey's face how happy he was. Such a sweet moment to remember. Our county fair is also in September. My kids used to love it when they were younger. They still love rides, just not the traveling kind :) This was Wrenley's school picture last year. She has grown so much in one year :) What I'm Loving... Makena and my mom have started mak...

Be Her: When Our Ideal Self Becomes an Idol

 Ella Langley's "Be Her" got me thinking about something I think a lot of women struggle with- the woman we think we should be.  You know her. She's more disciplined. More confident. More put together. She exercises, keeps the house clean, reads her Bible every morning, never loses her patience, and somehow always has good hair. We tell ourselves, If I could just be her..... And there's nothing wrong with wanting to grow. But what happens when the woman we want to become turns into an idol? Sometimes we become so focused on our ideal self that we forget to ask God who He wants us to become. There's a subtle difference between praying, "Lord, make me more like Christ," and saying, "Lord, help me to become the woman I've decided I need to be." One is surrender. The other can easily become control.  Philippians 1:6 reminds us that He which hath begun a good work in you will perform it until the day of Jesus Christ. God isn't waiting fo...
