Slow Saturday mornings

 

Sweet Noah T.

It's a cartoon kinda morning

    I absolutely LOVE slow Saturday  mornings! I love to just get up and drink coffee and linger in my pajamas. We don't get to do that very often. The weather here this morning is 60 degrees and I am LOVING IT! I wish it would stay like that all day; however, it's going back in the 90's this week. Noah, Charley & I are just hanging out this morning, laying around watching TV. We have things to do today, but we can chill this morning. Garrett of course is at the farm. He's wrapping the hay he bailed last night and Drake had to go to work 😀.  I have done a handful of things this morning already, I did my workout, got Noah dressed (because he had a blow out when I got him out of his bed 😐), fed him breakfast, folded 2 loads of laundry, put 1 away and made coffee. I'm feeling pretty accomplished already, LOL. 

    Good luck to all my little league football families this morning who had to get their kids up for the game, whether to cheer or play football. And to all the other families who had to "hit the ground running" this Saturday morning. I'll have a cup of coffee for you! I hope you get to rest soon!

Wishing you sunny skies and green pastures,

McKession

Day date 3 generations Chicken ladies     It's 10:00p.m. on a Sunday night and I am still waiting for the laundry to get done, I'm listening to a live "Reel" on Instagram from The Budgetnista. If you don't follow her, DO IT! She's amazing and has some great advice. I'm a multi-tasker. I can watch/listen to this reel and type this blog and wait for the laundry to get done and and and. You get my point.  I feel like the month of September was a blur! The pictures above are just a fraction of what I have been up to. We had some extra catering jobs through the Merc. Charley has cheerleading and church on Wednesday nights and then all the other house/business owner/wife/mom chores there are also. Like why do my people want to eat every.day?!?!? I am learning to delegate and let the kids do more (although it won't be done the way I would do it, I need to let that go and let them do it) and it really hasn't been that bad. I keep reminding myself "at ...

Cherishing Togetherness

  9/15/12 - Our wedding day 9/15/24 - Mr. Bill turns 90 9/13/24 - because it's too pretty not to share with the world!!     This weekend was a weekend for celebrating. Garrett & I "celebrated" our 12th anniversary on Sunday. I put "celebrated" in quotes because we actually didn't do anything. I went to church, Garrett farmed, then we went to my mom's to help close the pool for the winter. It's not really about the pomp and circumstance for me. Anniversaries are like Valentine's Day in my opinion, you should show your person you love them daily, not just once (or twice)  a year. At the end of the day, we are both just grateful for the other and the role each plays in this marriage. Marriage is not 50/50. Sometimes he is giving more than 50% and sometimes I am. Sometimes I have to be the primary parent and sometimes he does. We are a team, we run this family like a mildly well-oiled machine 😆. When I met Garrett in 2009, I don't think he k...
