2025 Mother’s Day Weekend Recap

 Hey Friends,

I am so glad you stopped by to visit with us. I hope your week is going well!

Here is a quick update on my Mamaw. Mom and I spent some time with them at the hospital yesterday afternoon. She was still very weak, but improving!

The doctor was pleased with her progress and her numbers. The plan was for her to go home sometime today!

She wanted me to thank everyone for their prayers and concern for her. Thank God for answering our prayers!

I have some photos from our weekend to share with you. On Saturday, we spent time with my Uncle Danny Morgan and his family, Gran and Papaw. We had a great day with them!

The weather was perfect for a zoo day, so we visited the Columbus, Ohio, zoo. It was extremely crowded! 

We were thrilled to spend the day enjoying sunshine and family. Although I only captured a handful of pictures, countless memories were made! This was little Kolby’s first zoo trip.

Sunday afternoon we also had more Morgan family time. Mom and I decided to surprise everyone and show up for the Mother's Day family dinner. 

With two services at our church on Sunday, my mom being in the hospital And my mom's parents live an hour and a half away, I did not know if we could pull it off. The day was jampacked full, but I am so glad that we were able to be with my grandmother for a little while on Mother's Day.

Saturday and Sunday both we did spend some time with my Boggs Grandparents! I did not take any pictures of my Mamaw since she was in the hospital. Sick or not, she is still beautiful! 

Here is a picture from a few weeks ago! I love both Mamaw and Papaw dearly!

We will wrap it up with a few pictures that I snapped during church on Sunday. We are blessed to be part of DRPC!

See you all tomorrow!

Saturday Summary 4/19/25

 Hey Friends,

Thank you for stopping by to visit with me. As I write this post, it is already early Saturday. I did not have a schedule for today. 

Our church at DRPC had a two night revival Thursday and Friday night. We enjoyed being in service with Bro. Lynn and Sis. Arlene Head. They have been longtime friends of our family. 

Here are a handful of pictures from the revival. 

I found a few other pictures on my camera roll from the week.  of course, you will see pictures of some good food.

We had the opportunity to see a few family members last night.

Yesterday, some dear friends, sent us  a beautiful Easter basket surprise! Their kindness was so thoughtful and brought a smile to our hearts! We are so grateful!

Tuesday night at church, we were blessed to have Bro. Trey and Sis. Allison Brock. We love them!

Thanks for reading! that is just a brief overlook at some of the happening this week. I will see you all here tomorrow.

A Good Friday

 Hey Friends,

Today, we reflect on the day Jesus willingly laid down His life for the world and became our Savior on Calvary.  

We commonly call this day “Good Friday.” Was it really a good Friday? It was a day, though, that forever changed our lives! For Jesus, it was not a good day. He was nailed to a rugged cross. He was betrayed, beaten, scorned, denied, humiliated and crucified.

Yet He did it all in love. Jesus showed mercy, even while hanging on the cross. He loved you and me, even on that day. Oh, what amazing love! We love Him because He first loved us! I never want to take His love for granted!

On that horrific day in History, His love turned our world into terrific. Now, Good Friday is a Holy holiday that we look back on and celebrate with reverence.

This is just a pondering that was on my mind last night. I hope it makes sense to you! As my Dad often said, “it made sense when I said it to myself.”

I will leave you with a quote from my Dad. He posted this on the blog in April 2020. This is something else to think about today. Thank you for including me in your day. I will see you right back here tomorrow.

“Have you ever considered the historical fact that Jesus Christ, the son of God, rose from the dead three days after He was crucified? It is a fact that changed the world and still changes lives today. Praise God that He conquered death, hell and the grave!”

Valentine’s Day 2025 Recap

 Hey Friends,

Welcome to another Saturday post with me, Odie! Thank you for dropping in. 

First, I want to thank all of you who reached out to Mom and me yesterday on Valentine's Day. We appreciate your extra thoughtfulness and care for us! The calls, texts, surprise gifts and cards were so sweet and special! We definitely felt loved!

We were blessed with a wonderful day! I can say, for a fact, God's strength was with us every moment! We spent some time with my Mamaw and Papaw. 

Thankfully, we were able to mark something big off of our to-do list that has been there for three months. We will tell you more about it in the future. 

Then Papaw treated us to a great Valentine’s Day lunch at a family, favorite,Skyline.  below our pictures of mine and my Mom's meals.

Mamaw shared a pumpkin pie with us. Pumpkin is my favorite kind of pie and hers are the best! Sadly, I forgot to take a picture of the pie! Believe me, it was delicious!

We finished out the day with church. It was Youth Rally night at DRPC.  It was so good to see many people from our area fellowship join us for the service. 

Also, Friday was the last night of our services with, Bro. Josh Smith. Bro. Josh, preached excellent all week! It was wonderful to see him and his family again. We love The Smith Family!

 

The revival was really good! All four nights the altar services were wonderful! Last night was the icing on the cake! The Holy Ghost moved in a mighty way! It was a great blessing to feel the Spirit of God, so close to us! 

Let's just say, I went to bed last night feasting on Friday’s service! My heart is overflowing with joy and praise for our mighty God! What a blessing to be His child! God’s love for us is amazing, and never ceases to leave me in wonder!

Thanks for reading! I look forward to seeing you next time.
