Happy Father's Day

 Today we did things a little different for Father's Day.

We had burgers at our house, and we invited my immediate family.  Usually, my parents have it at their house but I decided to give them a little break.  


My Dad:

My daddy and his girls
He has always been such a good daddy to his girls, always giving us everything we needed and more.  And most importantly, he has always led by example.  I thank God every day for him!

My Carl:

Carl and the kids, son-in-law, and grand baby

Always putting his family first and himself last. Someone who always tries to fill the needs and provide. I have so much love and respect for this man and all that he does for us. I could not be more grateful for the father he has been to our children.  He has always shown such love and dedication. He has always given all he's got.  Always shown up.  Always done his best. Always loved with all of his heart.  He continues to try every day no matter the obstacles. That is what a good dad does. Not to mention he is hilarious and a total hottie 😊
Happy Father's Day Carl!

After everyone went home, we had to help Makena decorate her room for Vacation Bible School because that starts TOMORROW! It looks great and I think she is (mostly) ready for the kids.  She has such a servant heart, and it makes me so happy to see her use her gifts for the Lord.

We had a little daylight left, so we headed down to the river.
The coolest group ever 😘

"The righteous man walks in His integrity; His children are blessed after him." Proverbs 20:7

Much Love,
Beth

Monday Morning Chit-Chat

  Happy Monday, friends! Well, here we are again. Another Monday morning, another fresh week, and another cup of coffee that I'm hoping will magically give me the energy to accomplish all the things on my to-do list. Spoiler alert: It probably won't. But I'm going to drink it anyway. I thought we would start this week with a little old-fashioned chit-chat. Nothing too serious, nothing life changing. Just a little catching up on life lately, a few random thoughts, and whatever else happens to pop into my head. you know, the kind of conversation we'd have if you stopped by my house, pulled up a chair, and stayed a while. So grab your coffee (or whatever gets you going in the morning), and let's visit. First things first...it's October! This year is absolutely flying by. I love this time of year. The cozy evenings, the fall decorations, the soups and comfort foods, and the excuse to stay home in my pajamas a little longer. Now if Arkansas could just get the memo t...

What's Up Wednesday

 Happy What's Up Wednesday! Today I am linking up with  Shay  and  Sheaffer  for another "What's Up Wednesday" Let's do this! What we're eating this week... So far this week we have made: Wings on the Pit Boss Slow Cooker Pineapple Pork Chops You can't get any easier than wings and chops! Especially when they are on the grill and slow cooker!! What I'm Reminiscing About... Septembers past: September is Trey's birth month. It is also the month that my grandpa died four years ago. This is the year that Papa gave Trey a gun for his birthday. He was so proud to give it to Trey and you can tell by the look on Trey's face how happy he was. Such a sweet moment to remember. Our county fair is also in September. My kids used to love it when they were younger. They still love rides, just not the traveling kind :) This was Wrenley's school picture last year. She has grown so much in one year :) What I'm Loving... Makena and my mom have started mak...

Be Her: When Our Ideal Self Becomes an Idol

 Ella Langley's "Be Her" got me thinking about something I think a lot of women struggle with- the woman we think we should be.  You know her. She's more disciplined. More confident. More put together. She exercises, keeps the house clean, reads her Bible every morning, never loses her patience, and somehow always has good hair. We tell ourselves, If I could just be her..... And there's nothing wrong with wanting to grow. But what happens when the woman we want to become turns into an idol? Sometimes we become so focused on our ideal self that we forget to ask God who He wants us to become. There's a subtle difference between praying, "Lord, make me more like Christ," and saying, "Lord, help me to become the woman I've decided I need to be." One is surrender. The other can easily become control.  Philippians 1:6 reminds us that He which hath begun a good work in you will perform it until the day of Jesus Christ. God isn't waiting fo...
