A Doozy

 Happy Monday friends! What are ya'll doin'?  We are just waiting for this nasty ice storm that is headed our way.  Ice sucks.  It means power outages.  Although we have a generator, it is still not ideal.  And if power goes out at our post office (where our internet comes from) we lose our internet, which means we lose our television, as well as our phone service.  You see why I am dreading this?!

I digress.  Let's talk about the doozy that was all of last week!  

Ya'll, I didn't even know it was possible to be as tired as I was.  When I say it took me ALL weekend to recover, it is not an exaggeration.  Having a four-month-old while homeschooling a teenager (who is easily distracted) isn't easy. To add to that, my dad was at an international poultry show in Atlanta, leaving it to me to help out when my mom needed (which I ended up taking her to the ER one night). I was drained when Friday came.  There is much more to the story, but I'll spare you my whining :)

I bundled her up and took her to see the chickens and gather some eggs.
She loved it!

A little photo sesh with this little cutie pie.
She makes it all better.

I had every intention of posting a What's Up Wednesday post, but I never got around to it.  So here are a few pictures of what's been happening lately.

Carl and Trey went duck hunting:



My niece Ellie Kate turned 13:
The Cousin Crew! Happy Birthday, sweet girl :)

Pop, Aunt Kena, and Wrenley

Wrenley and Grammy

Cowboy Trey and Caleb

I love a good theme party :)

Wrenley and Pappy

Makena found out that she made the Dean's List at School!



Makena didn't come home this weekend because she had a thing with her MBSF group.
She had fun ice skating with her friends.




I made it through that doozy of a week and even got to rest all day on Saturday!  

Stay safe and warm if you are in on this ice storm.

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

 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 ...

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...
