Weekend Recap

 Happy Monday friends!  Hope you all had a great weekend.  It was a fast-paced weekend here on the homestead.  On Friday and Saturday, Trey went squirrel hunting with my uncle.  They entered the Arkansas Game and Fish Commission Big Squirrel Challenge, and they won first place in two categories!

This was also Makena's last weekend home for Christmas break.  I wanted to have a dinner for her but everyone was busy doing stuff except for my dad.  She wanted ribs, so Carl smoked some ribs!  They were delicious as always.  
Sunday was church day :) I was pleased to have our whole family at church on Sunday morning (Carlie, Caleb, and Wrenley were there also)! We had lunch at my parents house and then we had to leave to take Makena back to school.  I say take her back but she has a car and took herself, we just had to help her move back in because she had a lot of stuff and her back had started hurting a little.  Anytime the weather changes, but mostly when it is about to rain, she has trouble with back pain.  I guess having 2 back surgeries in 5 months will do that to you. After we got her all situated, we went and ate at Cracker Barrel. :)


Don't let him fool you, he will miss her :)

So that brings us to today.  Trey and I did school in this morning.  I went out at lunch to gather eggs and give the chickens some treats.  I discovered that the wind had blown the cover off of our hot tub (the wind had been howling all day), so Trey had to help me put it back on.  I took that opportunity to put more chemicals in it and scoop out any unwanted guests :)

I'm super happy about not having to spend money on eggs :)


My favorite part of any day is when I get pictures of my sweet girl, Wrenley Beth.  She is an absolute doll baby and I just want to kiss her face off!

Happy MLK Day!

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'm linking up with  Andrea  and  Erika  for another Friday Favorites. What a week it has been! Having picnics with Wrenley and Makena were pretty high up on my favorites list. She wanted a lunchable (big surprise there!) while Makena and I had tuna salad. Playing outside is a must with Wrenley! And she loves making sure the bird bath has plenty of water! Another thing on my favorites list is listening to Trey play the guitar. This smile is also my favorite! We had a celebration for my son-in-law, Caleb this week. He is a pretty great guy and we are thankful that he is "ours" now :)  He is my favorite son-in-law! As I was studying for my Gospel Project lesson earlier this week I realized we only have 3 more lessons! That means that summer break is just 3 weeks away (for our Wednesday night program)! Although I will still have to prepare lessons for Sunday School and VBS.  Summer is my favorite! This summer will be extra sp...
