Winter Weather Is Here

 Hey Friends,

We are still several days away from the official start date of winter on the calendar. Our first snow came last month, but it did not last long. We had a slight dusting of snow Saturday night, and it didn't even last long enough for pictures.

Here is the winter wonderland that came overnight, Monday into Tuesday. It was splitting snow when we were laid down Monday night. As the night progressed, I watched more snow come on my security cameras. By Tuesday morning, Mom and I guessed that we had somewhere between 4 and 5 inches of snow.

It was beautiful! The bad cold is here to stay for a while. Yesterday, I stayed snugly in the warm house. I had my heated throw close by for added warmth. 

I used the day for more recuperating. Mom made us some delicious chili for lunch and supper. It was a good snow day for me!

My photos was the closest we came to, my favorite, sunny beach weather yesterday. This cool tray on my Ottoman did make me smile. 

My Uncle Steve and Aunt Karen brought this to me recently. I absolutely love it! Thank you Steve and Karen for the “sick gift”! You helped me feel better. 

Thanks for stopping by for a visit! I will see you all tomorrow.

Christmas Wreath 2025

 Hey Friends,

First off, I want to wish my cousin Wade Ross Evans a happy birthday! 21 years ago, my world got a little sweeter with your arrival. You still are a sweetheart and make me smile! You will always be my cheetah! 😊

I hope you have a fantastic 21st birthday. We love you so much!

Christmas Wreath 2025

Last night was an event I have been part of for several years now. I really enjoy it each Christmas. It is a private event at Purkey Landscaping’s Plant Barn. 

We make Christmas wreaths. It is so fun to create something beautiful. Kristy, Tammy and Madison make sure we have all the supplies and inspiration. Then we are free to create the wreath that we choose. They are there to guide and assist us along the way. 

This years party attendees were my Aunt Theresa Osborn with ladies from Dodds Church along with family and friends. It was a great evening. We had so much fun! 

I think 2025 may be my favorite wreath so far. This year I went for more of a winter feel. I am hoping it will last a while past Christmas.

Thanks to Purkey Landscaping for hosting fun events! Check them out online HERE.

I will close with some pictures from last night.

See you tomorrow!

Also I included a picture of my bedroom Christmas tree. I love my travel tree. I did not have it done last month when I shared my Christmas decorations.

 Hey Friends,

Happy December 1st! If you missed Friday and Saturday posts, check out our 2025 MORGAN and BOGGS Thanksgivings. It is my favorite time of year. I love the holiday festivities. 

Mom is in Christmas Canta prep mode. She has practice with our band tonight. Keep me in your prayers. I am easing back into practicing my singing with Mom since my surgery. 

Tomorrow is two weeks since my surgery. I feel like I have progressed a lot in the healing department. Still taking it easy in many areas. I do not want a backset. I can do more things on my own, and I am not requiring as much pain medication now. Thank you, Jesus, for your help! 

Online Shopping 

I was able to do a lot of our Christmas shopping online pre-surgery. I took advantage of the sales last week for some more shopping. I love shopping in stores, but this year I am so thankful for Online shopping!

While doing your Cyber Monday shopping, check out our music store HERE. We still have time to ship our brand new project to you before Christmas.

Dad always said “CDs make great stocking stuffers, if you have square feet.” I had to quote him, I have heard him in my head for weeks now. 😍😂

Well, thank you for stopping by to visit. See you tomorrow.

Sunday Sanity 11/30/25

 Hey Friends,

Happy Sunday. I hope you are staying warm on this cold, snowy day. 

Here is a nugget of sanity for your Sunday. We heard this said earlier this month in Mississippi. I knew it would show up here at some point. 

“You will never kill tomorrow’s giant until you conquer yesterday’s lion.”

A Very Boggs Thanksgiving 2025

 Hey Friends,

Yesterday was our Boggs Thanksgiving. It was a fantastic day to have most of our family together. I love it when we are all able to be there for holidays. 

The Ohio, Alabama and North Carolina contingents of the family were present for Thanksgiving this year. Our afternoon was filled with family, fun, food, and fellowship! We are so grateful for God’s blessings on our family.’

We did miss Jonas, Kylee and Beckham! Their focus is getting little man well! We hope and pray they can be with us for Christmas! They may be a little closer to getting some answers, but still, they need our prayers. I know they are ready to be home as a family!

This year, our Thanksgiving menu was mostly catered by City Barbecue. That is a family favorite restaurant. The food was a big hit yesterday, too. We had smoked turkey, ham and brisket as the meats, and a myriad of sides. We all contributed drinks, a few sides and desserts. All together it was fantabulous Thanksgiving dinner. 

I will close with pictures from the Boggs Thanksgiving 2025. These pictures are a combination of mine, Mom’s, Aunt Theresa’s, Deidre’s and Uncle Tommy’s. 

I hope you enjoy a glimpse into our holiday. 

See you next time.
