Thank you for visiting us today. I hope you are having a great day!
Today is a big day for my cousin Seth! He is 18! Happy Birthday to my Sethie! 😀
June 6, 2007, Seth Erickson Evans entered this world in Hillsboro, OH. I was so excited for his arrival!
We were in Missouri when he was born. I think everyone around me knew when he arrived. I was waiting any moment for news of the new baby in the family
Seth, we love you and hope your birthday is wonderful! We are so proud of you!
You brighten our world with your smile and sense of humor. All the Seth stories are flooding my memory right now! 🤣
This summer will be memorable for him. He has his 18th birthday and his graduation. Clickhere to read about his graduation celebration last weekend.
My little buddy boy has grown into a handsome young man. Where did the time go? Now Seth is making his big Cuz feel bad old!
I went down the Seth Evans memory lane in my Google Photos. There are so many great ones, I had to share some of them with you today. I will let the pictures finish out the post.
Eighty-two years ago today, in Kentucky, a baby boy was born. Martin and Edna Boggs were blessed with another addition to their family. They named him Carl Eugene.
He grew up to become a wonderful man! He served his country in the Navy. Married his beautiful sweetheart, in June 1963, Martha Emma Isaacs Boggs.
Eugene has been a devoted family man. He provided well for his family. Soon he and Martha will be married for 62 years.
Now their family includes four grown children, in-laws, seven grandchildren and several grand in-laws that adore their Papaw, almost 7 great grandchildren that love Papa Great dearly!
Every member of the Boggs, family knows that we are incredibly blessed with the best! God has allowed us to have a Godly Dad, Papaw and Papa Great! He is our family rock! We love and appreciate him so much!
Thank you, God for my Papaw! Please bless, and strengthen him on his birthday and always!
We celebrated his birthday on Memorial Day. My cousin Deidre used my phone to take a few pictures and this video clip. Several family members and a few friends were still on hand as we sang happy birthday to him.
Thanks for joining me today! I will see you all tomorrow!
Thank you for stopping by for a visit today. Did you happen to catch our Memorial Day tribute to my Dad yesterday?
We appreciate all the kind comments. You all are so wonderful! Thank you for your support, prayers and encouragement!
Yesterday was a little rough for my mom and me. We missed my Dad and felt his absence!
We spent the day with almost all of our immediate Boggs, family, my Gran, and Papaw Morgan, and several other family members. Our Boggs crew always gathers for Memorial Day at my grandparents barn! The family time is precious!
Papaw Eugene's birthday is later this week. we always have to celebrate with a little bit of ice cream cake on Memorial Day for his birthday.
Toward the end of the day, several of us made the journey to Miami cemetery where many of our family and friends are laid to rest for their final time. It is a family tradition to go visit the cemetery Memorial Day, as a family.
This was the first time since Dad’d funeral that I had been back to the cemetery at the same time as most of the family. I think we all shed a few tears along the way.
We know he is not there! We also know that he is healed! I think we all felt the finality of one more time. it was a hard pill to swallow!
We ordered a gravestone several months ago to mark Dad and Ali's grave. The footer has been poured and waiting for a while. The stone is now complete, but due to rain and they were unable to deliver it to the cemetery for Memorial Day. Hopefully, it will be delivered soon!
The picture flag we added on Dad's birthday in January. By the time we found out the stone would not arrive last week, it was too late to order an unfaded picture flag. The other flag I ordered from Amazon last week. The large flower arrangement Mom picked up from a local nursery. my grandparents brought the other flower arrangement!
I think it turned out very pretty! It was a makeshift memorial to the greatest man I ever knew!
Speaking of the beautiful flower arrangement from the local nursery, it is compliments of an anonymous person. Someone emailed my Mother a gift card for Mother's Day. That is so thoughtful! Mom is so very thankful for that person's kindness!
We have no clue who it is! The nursery could not even tell Mom who sent the gift card. If you happen to be reading this, Thank you from the bottom of our hearts! May God bless you!
I will close with a boatload of pictures from yesterday! I hope you enjoy them all. Myself, Theresa, Steve Deidre and Kylee!
