Weekend Rewind

 Happy Monday, friends!  Hope you all had a great weekend.  It was nice and relaxing over here.  

Carl is finally to the point at work where he isn't working extremely late so we can actually make plans. 

Thankfully we didn't have a lot that needed to be done and we were able to do fun things!

Carl and Trey went bass fishing at the farm and caught some pretty big ones. 


We had a little fun at the pool also.

My girls :)

She kept trying to suck the water from her hands.

She loved playing on the steps with Nanny.

She's a water baby!

Our swim got cut a little short due to the rain but it was time for a nap anyway :)
Trey went out with some friends and Carl, Makena, and I went to the local drive-in and got some yummy dinner!
Makena and Boone were all ready for bed!

Sunday was church day!  We hosted lunch at our house afterwards for Carlie, Caleb, Wren, and my parents.
When everyone left I decided to do a little patriotic decorating.  I only found a few things at the old house, so I'll have to go back and look this week.  Here is what I have so far in our dining room.


I've got to come up with something for a centerpiece on the table, but I have a few weeks.
I have also picked up some flag bunting for my porches.  
I'm so excited.  The 4th of July is my favorite holiday!

It was a fun weekend! Lots of family fun was just what I needed.

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!...

Red Flags: Guarding Our Hearts & Our Churches

 Scripture tells us that shepherds are entrusted with God's flock, no for selfish gain but "being examples to the flock" (1 Peter 5:3). A pastor's calling is a holy one, rooted in humility, sacrifice, and love. But Jesus also warned that not every shepherd has pure intentions--some are "wolves in sheep's clothing" (Matthew 7:15).  As believers, we must stay discerning. Here are some red flags to watch out for in pastors: 1.  Special Treatment for Certain Families  James warns against showing partiality (James 2:1-4), yet some pastors cater to certain families, wealthy donors, or influential members while neglecting the rest of the body. Christ doesn't play favorites--every soul in the church matters equally to Him. A true shepherd cares for the unnoticed as much as the well-known. 2. Neglecting the Brokenhearted  Jesus came to heal the brokenhearted (Luke 4:18), but a pastor who avoids the messy, hurting, or less "influential" people in th...

Back To School Photo Shoot

The girls have been begging me since yesterday to take some pictures of them in some of their new outfits but yesterday the weather was kinda iffy as to if was going to rain (never did) and we would have had to fix hair before....and that just didn't really fit into our day, so I told them after church would work.  I would have never guessed how sleepy I would have been after not enough sleep due to Carlie's stomach issues and the fact that I took sinus medicine before I went to bed thought I was going to bed at 11:00.  Needless to say,  could hardly keep my eyes open during church.  I was seriously thinking of finding an empty room and taking a nap until church was over!  Instead, I waited until after we ate lunch (leftovers from last night!) and cleaned up.  I think we finished in record time and I was snoozing away by 12:45 :)  I could hear the kids, so I got up around 2:30 and the first thing Makena asked me was "Can we take pictures now?"....
