New Post, Who Dis?!

 Whew, two posts in three days! I have promised myself to finish the year strong😀

Let me start by giving a little Thanksgiving recap.  We went to my parent's for lunch and then came back here and chilled out for a few hours before dragging the Christmas tree and all of the decorations out.

These two boys sitting at the table have been getting into mischief together since 2008!
And Eli (in the background) has been in the middle of them since 2009!

A few of the early guests 
Uncle Charlie, Mom, Tim, Ellie Kate...I am thankful for them all!

We sure are thankful that he is with us this year!
I explained a little bit of what happened with him on my previous post.
He is feeling pretty good.  Still dealing with some brain fog but that is to be expected with any kind of brain trauma.

Grammy with Makena Faith

Carlie and Toby

My kiddos
I am very thankful that God chose me to be their mama.
I am thankful that they have all made professions of faith and choice to follow God 
And I pray that as they grow their families, they will always see the importance of putting Him first.

Grammy, Papa, Uncle Dean, and Aunt Becky
I am thankful that I still have one set of grandparents alive and that they have had such an active part in the lives of their great grandkids. I am also thankful for all of my aunts and uncles.  

Jill and Hadlee

Carl got the turkey carving job

She is so silly!
I'm so thankful that her back is better.  We had a major scare after an incident at the gym, but thankfully it wasn't a big deal after all.  I think we both has PTSD about her back injuries!

I am thankful for Carl.
He loves me well, even though I'm a mess!

Look at these yummy desserts!
The cannoli cake was wonderful, as was Makena's trifle!

I am not quite finished putting up Christmas decorations, and I'm not extremely happy with the tree yet, so I'm not sharing any pictures of that BUT here is an adorable picture of Boone.  He was a little less than thrilled about it all but cooperated for a few (5) treats😉

We ended the night with Christmas Vacation!

*In case you were wondering about my back situation: it is about the same.  If I'm not doing much it's okay. I may have to make a trip to the doctor to get a shot on Monday.  
*In case you were wondering about my case with my Walmart account: There is no change.  They still have not refunded my money because my case hasn't been assigned to anyone (happend the day before Thanksgiving= worse time to expect anything fast to happen).  Which leads me to one last thing: Thank God (sincerely) for my parents. They are always helping me out however they can.  They have always been the perfect example of selfless love. I pray that I will always choose to do the same for my kids.

Thank you for reading my ramblings.  The only consistent thing on this blog is the inconsistency of it all! I would say that it is going to be my New Year's resolution to be a regular on here next year, but let's face it:  in the event that life gets crazy, blogging is definitely the first thing to go.  

Much Love,
Beth

Friday Favorites

Happy Friday, friends! We made it through another week here on the homestead. Today, I am linking up with  Andrea  and  Erika  for another Friday Favorites :) This week has flown by! On Monday, Wrenley started her new "school year" at daycare. Even though she is in the same school with a lot of the same kids, she moved up and is now officially in PreK! She has had to adjust to new teachers, but seems to like it so far :) She is BeBe's big girl! 💓💓💓 At the beginning of the week, Carl asked if Makena and I wanted to go with him and Trey put some corn and salt blocks out for the deer. Say less, sir! Of course, our answer was yes :) Our chariot and driver Trey and Maggie Hopefully, our hard work pays off! Also came across this guy. He was around 5 ft. long and had 14 rattlers. Don't ask how I know that 😟 We always have a good time when we hang out with our guys, and that is most certainly a favorite! Watching my girl do her thing at work will always be my favorite!...

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...

Friday Favorites

 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 ...
