Friday Favorites

 Happy Friday, friends! Hope this Friday finds you all somewhere warm! This week I am again linking up with Andrea and Erika for another Friday Favorites.


  1. Slow Mornings (Even if they're short)                                                                                      This week reminded me that a slow moment matters just as much a slow morning. Five quiet minutes before the house wakes up. One uninterrupted cup of coffee. A deep breath before the day begins. Slowness doesn't have to be long-it just has to be intentional.


     2. Comfort Food That Feels Like Home
 There's nothing fancy about comfort food, and that's the beauty of it. Warm meals, familiar flavors,       and recipes you don't have to think too hard about. This week's favorite? Something simple and              filling, and made with what we already had. Food that nourishes more than just the body.



     3. A Verse That Stuck with Me
Some weeks, a single line of Scripture settles into your heart and refuses to leave. Not loud. Not          flashy. Just steady truth that meets you right where you are. I've been carrying it with me through the    mundane moments-- and that's often where faith grows best.


     4. Fresh Air Therapy
 A walk outside, standing in the yard, watching the sky change colors-- fresh air has a way of 
 resetting everything. No agenda. No productivity. Just noticing creation and remembering that the        world keeps turning, no matter what is happening in my life.


     5. Small Wins
 Not the big, Instagram worthy wins. The quiet ones like finally crossing off a task off the list,            handling a hard conversation with grace, or choosing to rest instead of pushing through. The                moments always count as favorites.


     6. The Anticipation of the Weekend
Friday isn't just about what's behind us--it's about what's ahead. Rest. Family time. A slower pace.  Even if the weekend is full of uncertain weather, there can be comfort in knowing that the rhythm is changing.

Here's to ending the week with gratitude, welcoming rest, and carrying a few favorites into whatever comes next!  Stay safe this weekend if you're in the path of the storm.

Much Love,
Beth

 Happy Friday, Friends! Today I'm linking up with  Andrea  and  Erika  for another Friday Favorites. What a week it has been! Having picnics with Wrenley and Makena were pretty high up on my favorites list. She wanted a lunchable (big surprise there!) while Makena and I had tuna salad. Playing outside is a must with Wrenley! And she loves making sure the bird bath has plenty of water! Another thing on my favorites list is listening to Trey play the guitar. This smile is also my favorite! We had a celebration for my son-in-law, Caleb this week. He is a pretty great guy and we are thankful that he is "ours" now :)  He is my favorite son-in-law! As I was studying for my Gospel Project lesson earlier this week I realized we only have 3 more lessons! That means that summer break is just 3 weeks away (for our Wednesday night program)! Although I will still have to prepare lessons for Sunday School and VBS.  Summer is my favorite! This summer will be extra sp...

 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 ...
