Weekend Fun

Good morning friends!  I hope that you all had a terrific weekend.  We had a pretty typical weekend around here.  Late night rides, weenie roasts/bonfires, bowling, and church.  The temperatures are finally lining up with the beginning of fall, so we were able to (comfortably) spend more time outside. 
                                                                       

 
Saturday morning bowling.
Trey bowled with a *gasp* girl today.
Needless to say he may have been a little distracted.
He scored pretty well on the first one, but the second one sucked!

Makena came home on Saturday afternoon after spending the morning serving the community of Arkadelphia with her school. 
she served with the History department (she is a public History major)

Ouachita is such a great school!

Carl was cutting rice all day on Saturday.  We are used to him never being around for the fun during harvest, but we always miss him.  
Saturday was also National Daughters Day.
I sure love my two girls.  They are both great kids and I am super proud of them.

Since my sister's kids were here, we had a weenie roast at my parent's house.
Noah wouldn't smile for me, so this is what we got! Teenage boys are something else.

My Grammy and BIL, Tim.

Papa and Grammy

After we got back from my parent's Carlie and Caleb came over for a good old fashioned bonfire.
It was so good to have everyone here....

Even Carl got to be here!

Trey and Macy...Macy belongs to Carlie and Caleb and she and Boone are besties.
Boone finally out-grew her, but Macy NEVER.SITS.STILL!  Hence, the reason she is blurry!

 Today is National Sons Day!
I am so happy that God gave us a son. Our would was so nice and clean and PINK before Trey.
Even though he is a little messy and sometimes dirty and stinky, we love that he turned our world upside down 16 years ago.  

This is my favorite thing to do after a very long frustrating day of school.
Homeschool isn't always fun and games.  Sometimes my dear sweet boy doesn't want to do his work or watch all of his lessons.  That makes for a real fun day for us both.  He may or may not get threatened with public school at that point.

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

  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...

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...
