Back To Life

 Happy Monday, friends! I am glad to be back in the land of the living! Carl and I have been sick for over a week now. I thought I may have been feeling better on Wednesday, but it came back with a vengeance late in the day. Wednesday was Grandparent's Day at Wrenley's school. Since Carl was pretty sick, my mom (Nanny) went with me, and Caleb's mom (JoJo) came also.  This was the only picture that we got. You can definitely tell that I am sick.

We didn't get a picture with Nanny :(

My mom helped us out by cooking for us. Chicken and noodles are the best, especially when you are sick!
The cornbread and green beans made it even better.

Then this happened
Flu B it is!

By Saturday I felt a little more like myself.  I worked on my planners for a little while but I couldn't concentrate long enough to get much done.
Just a few Valentine stickers on my monthly spread.

I snapped a picture of my three babies after church today. Trey must have put that hat on his head as soon as he came in from church because he definitely wasn't wearing it at church!

I love them to pieces!

The sun was doing something funky, but I always love pictures with my girlies :)
I feel so puffy. It's probably from the steroids. I'm ready to get back to working out!

When I came out of church this evening, I saw the sky and couldn't wait to get to the house and snap a picture. "The heavens declare the glory of the Lord" was all I could think of.

It has been a very long and boring week, and we are glad to feel a little better. 

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!...

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?"....
