A Sunday Surprise

 Hey Friends,

Sunday morning we had a great surprise. We had visitors at DRPC from Florida. It was so good to see Bro. Sean and Sis. Chondra Hume!

They have been our friends for many years! We share many memories from our visits to there home church in Haines City, Florida. 

I am so glad they came to visit DRPC   while in the area. I know they were glad to hear Bro. Bennie preach. 

After church we got the chance to visit with the Humes more. We introduced them to Ohio’s best pizza, Cassano’s. They seemed to enjoy it too!

I am glad we were home to see our friends. The surprise made our Sunday even greater. 

See you tomorrow.

Boggs Family Labor Day 2026

 Hey Friends,

I hope you had a great Holiday yesterday! Some of the Boggs family and added family gathered yesterday at Papaw's barn. That's the popular holiday family hangout. 

We enjoyed visiting over hotdogs, sides and desserts. It was a wonderful way to spend our Labor Day! I love our family gatherings. We always miss those who can not make it! 

I snapped some pictures. I got pictures of everyone who was there except for two people. Well, you know what I look like.  I was there  😂.

I do apologize to Lauren's boyfriend, Ian. He definitely was there, but I missed a direct picture . I will make up for it next time! 😂 He is partially in one of the photos. That means we do have some proof that he was there. 😂

Here are my Labor Day 2026 pics. I hope you enjoy.

Beckham Is One

 Hey Friends,

My regular readers will recognize Beckham. He is my cousins Jonas and Kylee's boy. You all have helped us pray hard for this little guy!

August 30th 2025, Beckham Porter Boggs was born. We were smitten from the beginning. We knew he was a special dude. 

Little did we know the health battles that laid ahead for him in the coming days, weeks and months. God brought him through a lot of stuff in the last year! Thanks for the prayers. Beckham is a warrior. He has rallied and persevered with courage. 

The war is not over. According to doctors he has a major battle to face. His rare genetic disorder makes him a candidate for a bone marrow transplant. We are still hoping and praying for divine intervention. God is well able to turn things around. 

Soon, they have an appointment with the  BMT specialist. Hopefully Jonas and Kylee will know more of a game plan then. The doctor wanted to wait until Beckham is one. Maybe another form of treatment will be available for his age now. 

Earlier this month they celebrated his big birthday. We did not get to be there, but I am so thankful for video and pictures. Thanks to Aunt Holly for supplying party pics! His 1 year photos are adorable. 

We love our little guy so much. He is a miracle boy! Here is a comparison of Beckham and his Uncle Davy the Great. I think they favor each other. 

See you later.

Fun Food Friends And Family

 Hey Friends,

We had a fantastic week with our longtime friends Bro. Bruce and Sis. Priscilla Mayhan. I know I mentioned their visit on Tuesday. 

This week we have done lots of reminiscing, visiting, eating and laughing on repeat. He even mowed my yard yesterday! That was a huge help to us, especially Mom 😂. 

We needed this time with our precious friends. Their friendship and support mean the world to us. They are a special gift from God to Mom and me.

Bruce and Priscilla, we love and appreciate them so much. Thank you all for spending time with us! See you on down the road!

I will close with pictures from our time with family and friends this week. We love our food, if you can not tell.
