Weekend Rewind

 It's Tuesday and I'm just now getting the weekend rewind up. Today has been Monday part two around here! Here is a look at what we did over the weekend:

On Thursday we had a mini photoshoot.  Makena was needing an updated picture, and she just got a haircut and feeling all fresh, so we headed out to find a spot! I swear she is the most photogenic of the three of my kids.  She definitely didn't get that from her momma!





On Friday night Carlie and Caleb asked us to eat dinner with them at their house.  Carlie was off all day on Friday and spent a good part of the day cooking.  We had tenderloin, baked potatoes, and corn on the cob.  She also made a cake! Ah, I remember being excited about cooking for others! 


Trey thought it would be cute to pick Macy up.
She is a bit of a terror but super sweet.
I think she was a bit heavier than he expected.

On Saturday we were back to bowling.  Trey had a pretty good first game.  His second game was terrible.  He knew it too.  As you can see in the picture below, he was thrilled.  It shouldn't matter, but sometimes the people you have bowling beside you does affect how your bowling goes.  Trey isn't super competitive with his bowling.  Maybe he should be? The kid we bowled with on this particular week is competitive, but his parents are worse!  I'm just like, "chill the heck out, it's just bowling!". Sheesh! 


Saturday afternoon was my niece, Ellie Kate's birthday party.  She had a tie-dye lama theme!  And believe me, that is so her. Her birthday is actually on the 20th but we had fun celebrating with pizza, presents, and cake!


Sunday was move-in day for Makena.  We left immediately after church. I think we took as much stuff this trip as we did in the fall!  Carl had to loft her bed for her and we had a shelf to take, so it was necessary for us to go.  I still don't let her lift heavy things.  There is always a fear in the back of my mind that she will re-injure her back and have to have a third surgery. She still gets irritated when I tell her to be careful.  We just know that if there ever has to be a third surgery, it will be a major surgery.

Quick selfie before we left.  
We love our sweet Kena!

I started working on my planner for the week and for some reason black and yellow just stood out to me. This was in the very early stages of planning.  I didn't get an after picture because when I remembered I had already written all in it. Maybe next week, I'll show you a little more of the planner set-up process. 

We are thankful for a fun weekend as a family. 

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...
