2LT Lucas Osborn

 Hey Friends,

We are blessed with an incredible family! I love our family members. I am thankful for the tight bond we have. 

My first cousin tribe is awesome. God gave me great people to call mine. I have watched them all grow up. It is wonderful to know we have each other's backs. We can cry together and celebrate life’s milestones. 

Lucas James Osborn is the baby grandchild on the Boggs side. Now, he is a strong, handsome young man, but will always be my sweet baby cuz. We love our little Lukey! 🤣

Today, I am a proud big cuz. Last month, Luke completed more of his training for the Kentucky National Guard. We are so proud of his great accomplishment! Congratulations, 2LT Osborn. 

Uncle Jay and Aunt Theresa and Luke’s fiancée, Allison, were on hand for this graduation in Missouri. Aunt Theresa shared pics with us at home.

Friday evening, we met up with Luke for dinner. He was passing through Ohio for a day. It was wonderful to see him again. 

I miss him when he is away!  Now he is off to Kentucky for his next great adventure. Please pray for him, as he embarks on life!

Thank you for reading.

Congratulations Reese Lamb Class of 2026

 Hey Friends,

Yesterday, we stopped by a special graduation party. Reese Lamb is a member of the class of 2026. It was great to celebrate her major accomplishment with her!

We are so proud of Reese! She is a precious young lady. We have watched her grow up. She has always been a fun girl. We love spending time with her!

Now, Reese is beautiful young lady with a heart for God! She is a walking miracle, and we are still praising God!

Graduating is an amazing milestone for Reese. I am excited to see what God has in store for this lovely lady! Reese, we love you dearly, and you are in our prayers!

Last night I went through some of my Reese photo memories. I have lots of them through the years. I found some gems to share with you. 

Thank you for reading.

Celebrating Emilee Class of 2026

 Hey Friends, 

We were on hand Saturday as one of our sweet girls celebrated. Emilee is Class of 2026! Congratulations are in order. 

Emilee Dottry, we are so proud of your huge accomplishment! She is part of the Germantown Christian School’s Class of 2026. 

We were thrilled to be there as she celebrated her achievement. Emilee had her closest family and friends there celebrating with her. 

Soon, she plans to be off to Missouri. There she will attend Ozark Bible Institute. I know God has great plans for Emilee. We will pray for her as she embarks on this next chapter of life. 

We will loan her to OBI, but do not forget where home is. You belong to DRPC. 

How in the world is my baby girl all grown up? The picture above was taken in 2017. She has been a bright spot for me so many times! 

I will wrap this up with pictures from Saturday. We love you, Emilee!

Happy 18th Birthday Seth Evans

 Hey Friends,

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. Click here 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. 

See y'all tomorrow.

Two Graduation Parties In One

 Hey Friends,

The last couple of days were packed with activities. It may take a few posts to recap Saturday and Sunday. 

Saturday was graduation party day for two special people, Seth and Darby. 

Seth Erickson Evans

Seth is Mom’s nephew, my cousin, to connect the dots for you. Seth is our “baby” of the 7 Morgan grandchildren. The next family high school graduate will be a great-grandchild! 

 Darby Yeager

We claim Darby as family now. Everyone else on the Morgan side of our family has connection to her. 😄

More connectting the family dots for our readers. The graduates mothers are best friends. Seth and Darby have been longtime friends. The Yeager and the Morgan family became officially connected when my cousin Kayla Morgan married Trever Yeager. 

Trever is Darby’s brother along with Braden.  Also, my cousin Morgan Evans, Seth’s sister, has been dating Braden for years. So the the Morgan and Yeagers are tight! Oh, and the all attend church together. 

They had separate parties at the same venue. The party times overlapped so people could attend both parties if the wanted too. It made it easier to share decorations and food prep for both families. 

Graduating high school is a huge accomplishments! I loved celebrating with the graduates. The weather was perfect. It was a great day for food, family and fun!

Here are the rest of my picture from the parties. I tried to capture some of the family, friends and festivities.  Too bad you can't taste the yummy food!

Thanks you for attending both graduation parties virtually! I will be back tomorrow to finish out my Saturday.
