A Miracle on Mainstreet

This year our church Christmas Program was titled "A Miracle on Mainstreet". This is the first year that I haven't had one of my own children in the program. Trey was dead-set against participating this year, and some things aren't worth the fight. He did help me and Carl with the set building. Makena is the main tech girl. She handled all of it! I was extremely worried about her having too much stuff on her plate (right in the middle of finals) but she did great and wasn't too stressed out!

Grammy and Trey

Bless her heart, I can just tell by looking at her that she has dementia.

It breaks my heart because she is slowly just fading out.

I am thankful that she has gotten to spend as much time with Wrenley as she has.

And a little angel

Speaking of angels, Wrenley was supposed to be an angel. First, she refused to wear her wings, then she refused to even get close to the manger! She protested when Carlie tried to take her. I'm going to blame it on her being half sick.

She watched from afar :)

Carlie had to pull all kinds of tricks out of her hat to get Wren to stop crying.

This one worked!

She finally sat in the floor and watched the other kids.

She really is a little ham!

This girl spent countless hours working on this program.

She came home every weekend for the month leading up to the program.

She deserved the flowers!

If you get a chance, go to YouTube and look up "A Miracle on Mainstreet". It is a cute program with a terrific meaning. Jesus should be put first in our lives every day, but especially at Christmas time.

Much Love,

Beth

Friday Favorites

Happy Friday, friends! Today I'm linking up with Andrea and Erika for another Friday favorites. And here they are in no particular order: Last week our preacher told us that he had a surprise for us next week. I had honestly forgotten about it until Carl mentioned at lunch on Sunday. Trey said he knew what it was, but he wasn't telling. It still didn't occur to me what it could be until we arrived at church on Sunday night, and I saw that Trey had a notebook along with his Bible sitting next to him on our pew. It was him. Trey was the surprise. He gave a short devotion before our Business Meeting. He did well, considering it was his first time. He said the congregation was a lot scarier when you are the one being stared at! This is a big deal because about 7 months ago he realized that he needed Jesus as his Savior. And that came after about 7 months of me worrying about him, while he was trying to stretch hi...

Friday Favorites

Today I'm linking up with Andrea and Erika for the first Friday Favorites of 2025! Over the past three weeks, I have thoroughly enjoyed getting to spend more time with Wrenley. She is growing up so much. She is speaking in full sentences and is a clown to boot! We've enjoyed lots of naps in BeBe's bed, playing with baby dolls (one of her favorite things), and since I have to pick her up before 7 a.m. on the days she stays with me, we enjoy getting her favorites: donuts (nonuts) and hotcakes from McDonald's -not at the same time though! Snug as a bug in a rug! She loves her Ky Ky Another favorite is a clean kitchen! We have had our house in a bit of chaos like I'm sure everyone else has with all the holiday festivities (and with Carl being off). I am glad to have everything in its proper place! That ray of sunshine is therapy for my soul! The next thing on my favorites list is Carl's chili. We had it last night and will probably have leftovers for a few day...

Friday Favorites

It's been a hot minute since I've linked up with Andrea and Erika for a Friday Favorites! This is me trying to get back into my blogging groove :) I came across this little dress last year when we moved, and I knew it would be fit Wrenley this summer! It was Makena's circa 2004. I just love it when a plan comes together. A favorite for sure! Look at those babies. Twenty years has flown by. Miss Wrenley Beth. She doesn't look a thing like her momma, but definitely has Aunt Makena's sass! Hopefully as her hair grows, she will get Carlie's curls. We have been doing as much outdoor activities as possible. That includes one of my favorite things...fishing! Carl, showing off his big bass. We weren't technically bass fishing, but whatever bites. It'll eat! Of course we have also been going to the river. Our kids weren't able to go with us, so we just took the jet ski. It has been raining so the water is a gross brown. I didn't s...
