The Most Wonderful Time

It really is the most wonderful time of the year! We have been doing our best to get in the Christmas spirit around here.  
The dining room in all of her glory.

Carl's Granny made these in 1972.  
I will never not put them out!

Wrenley's manger.
These are cloth and just for her to play with!

Somehow, I didn't get any pictures of my living room tree except this one:

Our handsome Boone

One day as I was walking out of a local store Carl called me and said that he wasn't "felling right" and needed to go to the doctor.  In reality we probably should have gone to the ER, but we opted for the clinic.  He really thought he was having a heart attack.  His blood pressure was through the roof!  They did all kinds of test and sent us home.  We got a call later that he had not had a heart attack, but he was supposed to see a cardiologist in Little Rock on Friday.  They gave him some medicine to lower his bp.  It helped some but when we saw the cardiologist, he wanted to set him up for an angiogram.  So, Monday morning we headed in for that.  
He was ready to feel better.

Thankfully everything was fine.  No blockages! He felt 110% better after he left and hasn't felt bad since.  We go back the second week in January for a check-in with the cardiologist, but we are praying that he just needed to be back on his blood pressure meds.  Thank you, Jesus!

We had our first Christmas (my dad's siblings) on the 9th.  We also had a funeral that day.  A sweet elderly lady in our church passed away.  Then my sweet little Wrenley got sick with Cov*d. It was just a lot of heavy-ish stuff at the beginning of the month.   Makena will be home later this week, and I can't wait to have my babies under one roof again :)

Wrenley at school a day before she got sick.
She is such a happy baby girl!

We are hoping and praying that we can all stay well for the rest of the month!

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 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 ...
