Pumpkin Carving & Family Pictures

 Happy Monday friends!  We had a fun family weekend.  All of my kids were here, and that calls for a happy mama!

Makena was home for fall break.  She got to help me with Wrenley and loved every minute of it.

Wren loves her Aunt Kena

My parents hosted a pumpkin carving party at their shop on Saturday evening.  It was also a birthday party for my sister :)

Something else had Wrenley's attention.
Sweetest little family!

Enjoying all of the first holiday things with my granddaughter!

My parents were pretty happy to have all of the kids/grandkids/Wrenley present.

I didn't even take a picture of all of the pumpkins together, but the kids had such a good time carving them and just spending time together.  We only get to see my sisters kids every other weekend so when they get together they always enjoy it.

We attempted family pictures on Sunday after lunch but it was super windy.  We may try again when Makena is back home.  We got a few but not exactly what I was going for.  I haven't edited them yet, so maybe I can fix some spacing issues.

The Five Mungers plus two!

Family:  a group of people, each a unique masterpiece, sharing unconditional love and support.  One of life's greatest blessings. 
I will cherish them always!

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...
