Would You Rather

Well I've done absolutely nothing worth writing about this week because I spent all my time clearing out some closets and getting rid of a lot of stuff my husband we don't need. Since I have nothing to say, how about you say something? Answer the questions in the comments.

1. Do you go to the doctor at the first sign of an illness or are you someone that would order a coffin before calling for a doctor appointment?

2. Would you eat pumpkin flavored ice cream?

3. Are you a first-in/last-out kind of person or do you arrive late and leave early because you're not all that social?

4. Are you an expert at selfies or do you avoid them because you always get a shot of your forehead?

5. Do you look forward to that extra hour of sleep this coming weekend or do you wish they'd do away with Daylight Saving Time all together?

6. When someone says, "share if you agree", do you?

7. How do you lift your spirits if you feel discouraged?

8. Are you an organized person or do you just buy a lot of stuff to help you get organized and then just kind of forget about it?

9. If you had to make dinner tonight just from something in your fridge, what would your family be eating?

10. Do you prefer baths or showers?

I know, totally random. But that's why you come here, isn't it?

P.S. Aren't my grandchildren adorable?

Testy Tuesday

It's that time again. Just below are the pet peeves that are driving us crazy this week. Add your own in the comments, or ditto someone else. Commiserate with each other, blow off steam and go on your merry way.

Kylee: social media filters🤷🙊

Stephanie: how few hours there are between night and morning

Jill:  when the grocery store rearranges everything, and a ten minute stop becomes half an hour wandering through the store, surrounded by blank-faced, confused people desperately reading signs and trying to find their way around.

Now it's your turn. What's bugging you?

Who said Christians Can't Have Fun?


What a great day we had yesterday in the Lord's house.

Yesterday was Old Fashion Country Sunday at our church, and I reckon' we had a good ol' time.

There was such a great spirit! We had phenomenal preaching, new visitors, 1 person baptized and 2 new families join the church. Praise The Lord!!

But that's not all...

We had a great time of fellowship following our morning service. We had a delicious Fried Chicken Dinner with all the fixin's. It was finger lickin' good!



Following the dinner we had an afternoon service that was full of fantastic popcorn preaching by some of the men in our church. It was so neat how all of their messages that they had prepared really went together! 

There was also some competitions...

We had a Minnie Pearl "Howdy" Contest!



We had a few of our ladies participate. I'm a little biased though because this little cowgirl was my favorite.

We also did some skits from the show HeeHaw.



 They all did a great job and were so funny! 

What a mighty God we serve!

I'd better skedaddle! Ya’ll come back now, ya hear?

When you start a War, Bee sure you finish it!

  Well, we were finally able to rent a house here in Brazil. It's a wonderful house. There were just a few things the landlord was going to tend to before we moved in. One of which, was the fact that there were two Bee hives on the back side near our bedroom.

No big deal. They were going to take care of the problem.

Except when move in day arrived, the bees were still there, and they had made themselves even more comfortable. They were now entering the house through a tiny slit in the ceiling. It was just in one room directly under the hive so we kept that door closed. That one room was the closet in our bedroom, though, so we couldn't move into our bedroom.

No big deal. We had a house and they were going to take care of it....right??

Then they came to take care of the bees. They sprayed poison outside all around where they saw bees. They left the poison and told my hubby to spray a couple more times, and in a few days the whole hive would be affected and we would be good to move in there.

Well, the bees seemed to be dying off, but two days later, we woke up to find this...
Look closely. This is the room they started in, and that is a lot more bees than there were st the beginning of this. 

This is the bathroom right next to that other room and they decided to invade here too. 

Not to mention, there's tons and tons of dead bees on the floor in this rooms. 

I did not realize this was an "it will get worse before it get's better situation" 🤷‍♀️ but we were not about to lose to a bunch of bees. Our landlord  just happened to be coming that day to check something else. So we took the opportunity to show him the situation. We opened the door and his eyes got huge, and he grabbed the door to shut it back. Then later that day, he sent these guys.


I was little disappointed that all they were doing was spraying again,  but they said they'll be back. They're going to do a sneak attack at night when all the bees are sleeping. Then they will all die!!! Sorry, I got a little carried away, but can you blame me??

Last we checked, there was not a single living Bee in either of those rooms, but I still see them buzzing around right outside those rooms. Thats ok, though. This War is not over yet.

Happy Thoughts Thursday

So you've made it through half the week, but it's still not Friday yet. Sometimes by Thursday you need a little lift to make it to the weekend.

Our solution? Happy Thought Thursday. On Tuesdays you can drop a pet peeve or an irritation. On Thursdays, give us a praise, a thankfulness, or something that just makes you happy. Your contributions on Thursday can be deep and spiritual, such as thankfulness for your salvation, or as shallow as a cup of coffee or a good hair day.  Here are our happy thoughts for this week:

Stephanie:  a very happy 6 month old baby because she is mobil 
              
Kylee: dresses with pockets😍

Jill:  my hubby had a stress test this week. The cardiologist said his heart is very strong and healthy and he doesn’t need to see him again for six months.

 what about you? What makes you happy today?

It's Beginning to Look A Lot Like --- Easter?

The fall season is a dangerous time for me. I love all the scents and sights of the season:  the bright colors of the trees, the cool breezes, the crunch of leaves underfoot, curling up under a blanket with a cup of coffee, the crackling fire in the fireplace ...

There are three places that I get into trouble during this season. Hobby Lobby, Bath and Bodyworks and the Cracker Barrel Store. I love looking at all the decorations, smelling the wonderful candles, air fresheners and hand soaps and seeing items that most people can turn into beautiful fall crafts. I have the ability of a third grader when it comes to crafts, but something about the fall season makes me think I can pull it off.

I can't.

Last year I tried making candles in my crockpot. And, yes, that is a melted crayon on the inside of the jar. Don't judge.

At any rate, I still love going into those three stores and seeing their decorations. Maybe snagging a few items with a buy three get three and a 20% off coupon. The trouble is, the season is so beautiful and fun, I could really get into financial trouble if I'm not careful.

At least, that's the way it was in the past. This year I'm not finding the kind of things that bless my ever-fall-loving little heart. I'm not seeing the little fall salt and pepper shakers (just ugly owl ones). There's not a lot of Autumn-scented candles. And few of the reds, golds, oranges and browns arranged in fall wreaths and pictures and even clothes.

Instead, I've spent most of October trying to see past the Christmas displays to find a few fall items on clearance. I don't want Christmas stuff yet (other than Christmas music). I'm still trying to get my fall garland all arranged.

Everyone always seems to complain about how the seasons come and go before you know it. If that's the case already, why are stores rushing it even more?

Seriously, are any of you doing Christmas shopping yet? And I'm not talking about presents. It's perfectly acceptable to be shopping for Christmas presents all year long -- as long as you can remember where you stashed your goodies when it comes time to wrap them.

No, I'm talking about Christmas decorations. Are you buying any yet? Doesn't it seem a little early? Some of these Christmas decorations and displays were out in September! What's up with that? At this rate, we'll need to be buying Valentine candy in November and Easter eggs in January. Patriotic displays should be up by April, and I guess the fall displays I'm looking for will be out in June, along with back-to-school supplies.

Tell the truth:  what season are you in now?

Kylee: guys who wear skinny pants paired with loafers and no socks!

Stephanie: bees

Jill:  Facebook posts that say, “This is a little test to see who reads this post until the end ... “, or “ I bet I won’t get one share”, or “Like, share, and comment amen in order to show how spiritual you are!” 

Now it's your turn. What's bugging you?

The Final Countdown


I can see the finish line as we are two weeks or (hopefully) less until our baby girl is finally here! We are all more than anxious to meet her! Her big sisters have been asking a lot of different questions in anticipation of her arrival , well mostly the younger two.

They have been asking things like:

Are her eyes open and can she blink?

How does the Dr. get the baby out?

Where is the babies’ head?

Will she be able to laugh?

Does the baby have hair?

All valid questions. Some of those I’m choosing to answer with a simple I’ll tell you when you need to know. Other ones they ask I’ll answer the best that I know and I’ll get a follow up “aww” from Olivia if she is satisfied with the answer I give her. They are very curious little girls and are eager to see her. 

The other day I asked each of the girls what they are looking forward to most about their new sister being here.

Stella can’t wait to play with her when she is older but until then she is happy with getting to help out momma!

Talia can’t wait to go to the restaurant with her. There isn’t a specific restaurant that she wants to take her too, but that is just Talia’s favorite thing to do. (As long as it’s not Mexican a Mexican Restaurant. We found out quickly this isn't a favorite for any of our kids.)

and Olivia just can’t wait to hold her because after all, it is HER baby!

Yesterday we took advantage of being dressed up for church in hopes of getting that "perfect" family photo before adding one more. Is there such a thing as a perfect photo?

Forced:

Reality:

Have a great week!

Who Needs to Plan??

  I had something else planned to write today, but then yesterday happened, and my plan went out the window.

  I also has several other things planned for yesterday, but they didn't end up happening. What did happen, you ask? Well, as we're all going about our morning and getting ready for our day, my three year old went up to the lady we are staying with and said, "How do i get this ball our of my ear?".

  So we looked inside her ear to find a tiny white ball. We couldn't tell if it was an air soft pellet or a tiny styrofoam ball. I made an attempt to get it out, but when I barely touched the ball, it slid in further. 

 OK, change of plans, we are going to spend this morning at the doctor. First trip to the doctor in Brazil. Off we go, me, my hubby, the missionary that we're staying with, and our little girl who did not understand the seriousness of the situation. I say that because not only did she try to put another one in her other ear right before we walked out the door, but she was also singing about how she put a ball in her ear and she was s going to the doctor. 🤦‍♀️

    Fast forward 5 hours and 3 waiting rooms and  many "we do not put things in our ears" speeches , we had made our way to the surgery center waiting room at the hospital. The doctor had decided anesthesia was the best option. Little girl sleeps, and they take it out.


  My thoughts of, "I hope this scares her enough to keep her from doing it again" were followed by many thoughts of guilt. I wanted her to be scared not traumatized. Finally the doctor came and took her back. The doctor assured us she would be fine because he knew english. Yes, he did... A whole 10 words in english. I'm sure that little 3 year old wouldn't be scared at all without being able to understand anything. 🤨 When she left, I cried.

I forgot to mention that they only allow one parent past the intial hospital waiting room. They let me go and the missionary go because I needed an interpreter. So for 4 hours, my hubby sat downstairs in a waiting room and I sat upstairs in a waiting room. Both of us feeling totally helpless.

  After the longest 25 minutes ever they finally brought my little girl back out. She no longer had a ball in her ear, and she looked very confused. After another hour of waiting, we were finally able to leave the hospital.

I learned several thing in our 9-5 hospital day yesterday... 
Plans? There's no point. 
I'm not a huge fan of public hospitals here. 
Little girl was scared, but not traumatized.     She actually doesnt remember anything   except them bringing her to me. 
And, I have got to learn Portuguese.

The Art of Sitting Still

While my children have learned to behave in public (at least most of the time), there were many long years when I struggled to teach them to sit still during a church service. Whether we were hitting every church up and down I-65 while we were on deputation, or sitting in our tabernacle in Uganda, or just at our home church in Madison, Alabama, there were times when I felt like we were at a wrestling match instead of a church service.

With that in mind, I thought I'd give a few tips on training little ones to sit in a service. Not all of these suggestions may work for you, but here's a few ideas that might help.

1.  If your church posts their sermons online, or if they offer CD's of their messages, you may want to take advantage of it because for a while at least, you're not going to be getting very much out of the sermon when it's live.

2.  Don't wait until an actual church service to start training them. Take some time at home and tell them you're "practicing for church". Have them sit next to you on the couch, and just practice sitting still. Start with just a couple of minutes, and then gradually increase the time. Do not have the TV on, and don't have your phone nearby either. Every time they start moving or try to get down, correct their behavior by telling them no, and reminding them that they're practicing. Set a timer and have them sit still until it goes off. Reward success with a small treat. (An M&M or a penny to put in their bank.)

3. Sit towards the back of the auditorium during the service. There will be times when you have to take your child out, and people who come in and out of the auditorium during the service are very disruptive.

4. When they are very small, they won't be able to sit still for the entire length of the service, so have a small coloring book or notepad, or a small, quiet toy to occupy them. (Please don't let them color on the pews, carpets, hymnals, etc.)

5. Do NOT use your phone or tablet to entertain them. Although it makes things a lot easier, you're not teaching them to sit quietly in church. You're teaching them to entertain themselves with electronic devices during church. That's a much harder habit for them to break when they get older.

6. If they're having a tough time sitting still and following the rules during a service, deal with it at the time. Don't tell them you'll discipline them when they get home. Sometimes you will have to tell them, "If you do that again, I'm going to spank you." Hint:  They know if you mean the threat or not, so follow through. If necessary, take them to the foyer or restroom or someplace private and spank them.

7. When you're through disciplining, return to the auditorium. I can't stress this enough. If you spend the rest of the service sitting in the foyer watching them play, or if you take them to the nursery midway through the service, they will never learn to sit through a service because you're rewarding their bad behavior.

8. Even after your children have learned appropriate behavior, they'll still have days where they can't seem to sit still or they'll go through phases of testing your resolve. You may need to use added incentives. For instance, place 5-10 pennies in a cup and set it on the pew. Tell your child they're not allowed to touch the cup during the service, but if they behave, the pennies are theirs when the service is over. But also tell them that you will remove a penny every time they misbehave. You can do this with M&M's or skittles if you don't want to use pennies.

9. It probably goes without saying, but if you have to take the pennies or candies away, don't give them back. Tell your child they can try again to earn them during the next service.

10. Try to take care of needs such as bathroom trips and drinks of water before the service. Especially as they get older, they should be able to sit through the service without having to go to the restroom. And I've never yet seen a child die of thirst during a church service.

(You DO know that you should be able to make it through a 60-70 minute service without having to take a break, don't you?)

Once they are old enough to read and write fairly well, they need to focus on what the preacher is preaching. Have them take notes. They don't need to outline it, but they should be able to write down one or two things that they got from the sermon.

What about you? Have you got any tips or suggestions for training children to sit in a church service?

Happy Birthday, Talia!


Today we are celebrating this girl! 

Four years ago, Talia joined our family and life hasn't been the same since! She is spunky, tender-hearted, and full of life. There are so many things we love about her, but there are a few things that many of you don't know about her that really just make her so fun and special.

One of the things I love most about her and it may be silly but she snorts when she laughs. It's infectious and you can't help but want to laugh right along with her. We should have expected this when she had a smile this big when she was only 3 days old.


She is very caring! Talia wasn't feeling well this day and her little sister wanted to cuddle so she rubbed her head until she fell asleep. 


She loves fashion and most days you will see her in a dress. If not, she is just too cool for school and accessorizing like no one's business. I'm willing to pick my battles on days like these.


She is fearless! She loves to climb and be adventurous, which gives me gray hair and I'm way to young for that!

(Note: There is no picture of her adventurous side because I'm too busy making sure she doesn't hurt herself!)

She loves to share with her daddy. They have a special bond and it makes this mommy happy!


She can be incredibly sweet and angelic and it just melts your heart!


Happy 4th Birthday sweet girl! 
Now it's time for a day of food, fun, family time, and presents!!

Off to Brazil

  One of these days, I'll actually come up with good title for my posts, but for now...


We had vbs this week. This was the last day and they missed a nap, so it wasn't our most pleasant day. 

This guy won a prize during vbs. His very own 2 liter of guaraná, which he told his big sister, and everyone else that came near, "this is mine soda. I not sharing." he was all about it until we convinced him to exchange later for some dinosaur toys. 🦖🦕


We practiced our "millenial stare off in the distance, you may adore me pose" because apparently you can't survive on social media without mastering it... Or so it would seem. 

And we had our first chicken nuggets and fries in two months. I think the look says it all.


That's all folks

When Life Gives You Lemons



“When life gives you lemons, make lemonade”

I’m sure all of you have heard this saying! It's when you take something sour like lemons or a "negative" and turn it into something sweet like lemonade or a "positive".

Things have come up lately that are out of my control and are just a bit "sour" for my liking. It's so easy to question with each situation, "How am I supposed to do this" or "what if this happens?" I've tried to take each thing in stride and deal with it the best way that I can.

Despite having some lemons in our basket, we decided to make lemonade this week. 


We birthday shopped!

We wore fun hats to school!

We ate in the toy box!

We took daddy/daughter selfies!

We got a ton of candy at the local homecoming parade!

and we relaxed like a boss!

What "sweet" lemonade we made!

The Newest Boyd Lady

If you paid attention to the blog this summer (and really, why wouldn't you?), then you know that this past June we had an addition to the family when Paul married Shelby.

We asked Shelby if she wanted to join us in blogging, but for now she's decided to pass. So instead, we decided to officially introduce her to our readers by interviewing her. Kylee, Stephanie and I each came up with a bunch of questions which Shelby graciously answered. Well, she answered most of them.

So with questions and answers in no particular order of importance, let me introduce you to Shelby Boyd:

1. What has been your favorite date so far?

Horseback riding in the mountains of Kentucky. That was also the date where we first said, "I love you".

2.  What is your favorite holiday?

Christmas. It's the one time of the year where everyone is happy and all the family is together.

3.  How many kids do you plan to have?

Eight. I know everyone thinks we're crazy, but that's okay.

4. What is your favorite hobby?

Anything that lets me work with my hands! Whether it be in the kitchen or some kind of project around the house.

5.  What is something that Paul does that drives you nuts?

***Let the records show that this is a question Shelby didn't answer. We'll check back with her in a couple of months. I'm pretty sure she'll be able to answer it by then.

6.  What's your favorite meal to cook?

Roasted chicken with roasted vegetables.

7. Have you botched a meal since you've been married?

Yes! I decided to change things up and use a new seasoning ... let's just say that I won't be using it again!

8. How long does it take you to get ready in the morning?

About an hour to an hour and a half, depending on what I decided to do with my hair. LOL

9. Are you a morning person or a night owl?

I used to be a night owl, then I went to college. Now I'm some kind of permanently exhausted pigeon! LOL

10. Which of the seven dwarfs do you most identify with?

Definitely Bashful.

11. How do you like the north so far?

It's different lol. This time of year seems to be very gloomy.

12. What did you think of the Boyd family when you first met them?

WOW!! That's a lot of personality in one room!

13. What did you think of Paul when you first met him?

Wow! He's handsome ... he has a wonderful personality too, and did I mention how handsome he is?

14. What was it like going from one sister to now a bunch of annoying brothers-in-law?

Well, it really wasn't that hard to adjust to lol because I have six male cousins that I'm very close to.

15. If you had $500 to spend on yourself (no bills and nothing for hubby) what would you spend it on?

Animals! Specifically turkeys ... or maybe a puppy. It's a difficult decision ... but definitely something animal related!

And there you have it. The woman Paul married. We're all getting to know her better, and she's fitting right in. She and Paul are already expanding their family ... they bought some fish this past week.

So, got any questions for Shelby?

Comfortable Situations

Last week I blogged about ways to help when people are going through a crisis. One of the things I mentioned was making comfort food. Since last Friday, the topic of comfort has come up several times so I thought I'd ask about a few things that bring you comfort. Answer one or answer all. My answers are in the comments.

1.  What is your comfort food?

2.  Who is your go-to person when you need comfort?

3.  What's your most comfortable item of clothing?

4.  Are you more comfortable in a crowd or at home by yourself?

5.  Are you comfortable speaking publicly, or are you more comfortable with fading into the background?

6.  In a vehicle, are you more comfortable driving or riding?

7.  Which makes you more uncomfortable -- spending money or stashing it away?

8.  What kind of animal are you most comfortable around?

9.  Are you more comfortable giving orders or following orders?

10. Do you feel better wearing shoes or going barefoot?

Once you've finished this list, are you comfortable with your answers, or are you going to go through your day saying to yourself, "Oh! That's what I should have answered for my comfort food!"?

Thanks for answering, and have a "comfortable" weekend!

My Cup Runneth Over!



On Monday, our family was working at the church together. My husband was studying in his office and the girls and I were working in another part of the church building. My little Talia had snuck off and managed to find her way back to her daddy’s office to spend some time with him. I had been thinking to myself, she had been gone for a while, it seemed like maybe she got lost. I was almost finished with my work and then we were headed back to the office ourselves. Once I had made it back to the office, My husband looked at me and then looked at Talia and said, “ Do you want to tell mom what you did? “ I immediately thought, what did she do now? What am I going to have to clean up? Neither of them said anything they just stared at each other. At this point I was really curious. You could tell she wanted to tell me, she just didn’t know how. She looked happy but at the same time she looked like she was going to cry. Matt prompted her so she could tell me and she said that she asked Jesus into her heart to save her. She was tearing up because she didn’t want to go to Hell when she dies, she wanted to go to Heaven.

I am overwhelmed with happiness that not one of my children but now two  have trusted Christ to take them to Heaven when they die.

After Talia had told us what she had done, I asked Stella where Talia’s name was going to go because she just went over it in school? It was a perfect opportunity to make sure she was paying attention. Her answer: The lamb’s Life Book! 

Philippians 4:8
Rejoice in the Lord always: and again I say, Rejoice.
