Christmas Eve and Christmas Day

 For the first time in years, we didn't have anywhere to go on Christmas Eve. We went to church and that was it (other than a last-minute trip to Walmart...10/10 would NOT recommend). There is always something special about a Christmas Eve service.  

Wrenley and her BFF, Adalee

She was being a silly goose 

And then we ended up in the nursery!
She was having fun :)

In case you didn't notice, I didn't take any pictures of my family, but only Wrenley.  My time management skills were lacking that morning, so we were rushed and it was rainy, so our hair was messy.  It was just better to have Wren as our subject.
They went to Caleb's parents after church, so that was the only time I got to see her that day.

Christmas Morning

Merry Christmas, Munger Family!

Carlie, Caleb and Wrenley came out around 8 and we had a big pancake breakfast.  Poor Carlie and Caleb were both feeling pretty rotten, but thankfully Wrenley was feeling great!

Testing out her new chair.

Bathroom crayons piqued her interest!

It's good to even see your big kids smile on Christmas morning.

the only picture I got of Caleb opening his gift.

Trey got his boat top!

Makena and Wrenley playing with slime :)

She loves when Uncle Trey plays the guitar for her!

Here we are at my mom and dad's house for Christmas lunch.

Grammy loved that Wrenley wanted to sit in her lap and play with her dog :)


Overall, we had a great Christmas.  

"For there is born to you this day in the city of David a Savior, who is Christ the Lord."  John 2:11
 

Much Love,

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?"....
