Happy Birthday, Trey!

 How in the world did my baby grow up so fast?!  It seems like yesterday that they told us that we were having a boy!  I'll never forget how tight Carl held my hand.  Don't get me wrong, it wouldn't have mattered to him if we had three girls, but he was super excited when he found out he was a boy.  Then when we were deciding on a name, Carlie decided that we should name him Coyote.  For real...like when we told her at the hospital that his name was Trey, she cried crocodile tears. When we brought him home from the hospital, Makena could hardly keep her hands off of him.  She was so proud to be a big sister.

And just like that he grew up.  He is a (mostly) responsible, sweet, hilarious kid.  He is always willing to help others and we all joke about how he is a friend to all of the older men around the community.  He marches to the beat of his own drum, and doesn't care about the opinions of others (don't know where he got that!).

Here are a few pictures of from his birthday weekend.

He was the squishiest baby!

He has always been all boy!

LOVE HIM SO MUCH!


16 going on 26!

I know it's a little juvenile, but I couldn't help myself.

Happy 16th birthday, Trey!!

Make a wish sweet boy!

He got a new duck call!

Makena didn't come in from school until around 8 on Saturday night
so she was able to stay until Monday morning.  She wouldn't have missed his birthday for anything!
We ended the day having dinner at the river.  

Happy birthday, Trey Landon!  We love you and are so proud of the young man you are becoming.

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...

  Today I'm linking up with  Andrea  and  Erika  for the first Friday Favorites of 2025! Over the past three weeks, I have thoroughly enjoyed getting to spend more time with Wrenley. She is growing up so much. She is speaking in full sentences and is a clown to boot! We've enjoyed lots of naps in BeBe's bed, playing with baby dolls (one of her favorite things), and since I have to pick her up before 7 a.m. on the days she stays with me, we enjoy getting her favorites: donuts (nonuts) and hotcakes from McDonald's -not at the same time though! Snug as a bug in a rug! She loves her Ky Ky Another favorite is a clean kitchen! We have had our house in a bit of chaos like I'm sure everyone else has with all the holiday festivities (and with Carl being off). I am glad to have everything in its proper place! That ray of sunshine is therapy for my soul! The next thing on my favorites list is Carl's chili. We had it last night and will probably have leftovers for a few day...

 Happy January 74th! Ok but really, why does January seem to go on FOREVER?! Today I am linking up with  Andrea  and  Erika  for Friday Favorites! This was definitely a favorite moment from this week!  Our 47th President, Donald J. Trump! Since Monday was also MLK day, I had the pleasure of watching sweet Wrenley.  Celebrating my niece, Ellie Kate's 15th birthday was definitely a favorite! I also watched Wrenley on Wednesday because she was a little under the weather. She had fun playing and getting lots of ice cream and popsicles! Wrenley will always be my favorite. On this day she wanted to "work" like BeBe. She's so precious, even with her little bedhead! Good Music is a favorite. Play some old-school country music and we are golden :) My favorite meal this week. It seems like forever since I made a home-cooked meal! Cajun baked chicken, corn (because Trey loves corn), broccoli, mashed potatoes with white gravy, and rolls were on the menu, and every...
