Weekend Recap

 Happy Monday, good friends! I hope you all had the best weekend. It was pretty low-key around here. On Friday, I watched Wrenley all day. I hadn't seen her in a whole week, so I was really needing my girl! 

She was watching my uncle's new dog, Skipper in our yard.

We ate McDonald's for breakfast. She wanted a McGriddle and a hashbrown. We went to Nanny and Pop's house and played all morning. Then Carl came home around 12 for the day. We "rested" for about an hour and then it was back to playing!
We had a tea party. 
She mostly just like drinking her tea from a spoon and making a mess.

Then we took a ride on the Ranger
She laughed and squealed because Boone came with us and ran in a big puddle of water.

Carlie and Caleb came and brought some take-out plates from a fish fry at the Christian school my kids attended when they were younger. Then she went outside and looked at where we are going to plant the garden. Somehow, she slid down and got mud all over her which led to a bath at BeBe's. I was worn out when they left, but it was a good day. She only got mad at me once (ha!).
I didn't take any pictures on Saturday. We used it as a catch-up and clean-up day. Carl was home, so he cleaned out his shop. I swear you couldn't even walk in there. It is much better now. He says he may put his jet boat down here, but it usually just stays at Trey's house. At least he can find what he needs now!
He also moved the hot tub down to Trey's. 
Makena had to work all day but opted out of the gym so she could enjoy the nice weather, because the weather in Arkansas changes on a dime and boy are we in for a change! 
On Sunday we went to church. It was a great day in the Lord's house! Trey had to leave church because he wasn't feeling well. I think he is fine, but he has been fighting allergies pretty bad over the past week. There is pollen everywhere!

 We had a bit of severe weather after church. There was a tornado warning. Wrenley called me to check on me from the bathroom. She said, "You're okay BeBe?" I thought it was so sweet. There was a funnel that may have briefly touched down not far from Carlie's house. Thank goodness there was no damage and everyone is just fine!
This is what a coworker sent Makena from her house in Stuttgart

The clouds were very ominous

Starting to clear

Trey came to our house during the storm and brought Maggie.
She's such a cute little stinker.

Despite the chaos, the unfinished to-do lists, and the realization that I forgot half the things I meant to do…Weekends are still the best. They’re full of little moments, small laughs, and just enough rest to help us survive another week.

And honestly? If the house is a little messy and the to-do list is still half full, that just means we did the weekend right.

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!...

Friday Favorites

 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 ...
