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 his wings.  He has a re-directed path now and I pray every day that God will use him for His honor and glory.

Let's not talk about my crispy, dying grass and just focus on our sweet Maggie girl!  Trey, Carl, and I traveled a little over two hours away to pick this sweet girl up on Saturday.  She is technically Trey's dog, but I am the one who checks on her every 2-3 hours while he is at work.  She is a miniature Australian Shepherd and is about 12 weeks old.  She is a great addition to our family!


Seeing my sweet Wrenley having fun at "school" is definitely a favorite!  I also love that I get to pick her up and get her a Happy Meal on Thursdays.  She is always so happy to see BeBe!  


This sweet little family is for sure one of my favorites!  So happy they are mine!


I love to see her smile!  Makena has had a rough week of being sick with the stomach virus but is on the mend now.  She is doing so many great things not only at work, but also at church.  I just love her loyalty & dedication.  She will make someone a great wife one day. It makes me smile just knowing that in her season of waiting, she isn't wasting.  She is a busy lady for sure!

After a long *hot* day of work, it is always nice to be able to go to the river and relax. The kids were busy last night, so Carl and I took Makena's Jet Ski out and had some fun! We left the house at 6:15 and didn't come back until 8:30. I'll take that kind of date night anytime!

Hope you all have a great weekend! I plan to relax and enjoy every minute!

Much Love, 
Beth

 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...
