December 2024 Part 1

 It's Beginning to look a lot like Christmas!


💖💖💖💖

The museum holds "Spaghetti with Santa" each year.
Wrenley was not a fan of him though!

I stole this picture from Carlie because it is such a good one!
Wrenley was a flower girl at Caleb's sister, Whitney's wedding.
Not at all Christmas-related, but it did happen in December :)


Our Church Christmas Program, "The Christmas Family Tree"

Makena was the director of our Christmas program at church this year.
She comes from a long line of "directors". My grandmother directed it for years.
In recent years, my mother has taken over. This year, she passed the reigns to Makena.
Makena did a fantastic job. She asked me to be part of it and I was a little hesitant because
it is a big commitment. Every Sunday afternoon from October to December at 4 p.m. is a lot!
But I wanted to show my support, so I was in! And believe it or not, it really wasn't that bad!

Miss Wren Elizabeth was the most beautiful angel💖

Grammy even sneaked out of the nursing home for a few hours to watch the program.
Here is Wrenley with her Great-grandmother and Great-Great-grandmother.

Merry Christmas Sunday!
Caleb has to work two Sundays out of the month, and this month it was on Christmas Sunday.

If you have seen any of my pictures of Wrenley, you know that she doesn't wear a bow...like at all!
Well, we were dressing her baby doll, and I found an old baby bow of hers. She put it on her head for about two seconds and I was able to snap a picture.
She's such a cutie pie.

Next up, is Grammy's Cowboy Christmas.

Carl and I went out and found a Christmas tree at the farm

We love a good theme around here.
My mom is the Queen of Themes, lol!
A Cowboy Christmas it is!

I had to snap a picture of my "brother", Toby Lewis.

Wrenley got a new babydoll from Grammy.
She absolutely loved her!

Grammy with Carlee, Savvy, Wrenley, and Carlie
The girls were thrilled to play together, and having littles around sure makes Christmas more fun!

Makena was helping Grammy open her presents.

Grammy with 3 of her 4 kids and their spouses.

Grammy with my family.
Caleb is still missing, but will be here just in time for Santa!

It's been a busy and fun month so far! Stay tuned for part 2.

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

 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...
