Happy Birthday Aunt Jeanna

 Hey Friends,

Thank you for visiting! Our family’s January birthdays continue today. January 14th is the big day for my Aunt Jeanna Morgan.

I am so blessed to have excellent aunts in my life. Jeanna has been right there for most of it.

 Jeanna is an incredible person, and we are blessed to have her in our family! She is loved as a wife, Mom, daughter, sister, aunt, friend, and pastor’s wife! Jeanna excels at each of her positions! She is well

loved by all!

It is safe to say her favorite title now is Nina or Nana. She is a proud grandmother to soon to be 5 grandchildren. 

I can not let today pass without giving my Aunt Jeanna a birthday shoutout. Jeanna we love you so much. Hope you have a fantastic birthday! 

I will close with some more pictures of the birthday girl.

Ezra Is Golden and Celebrating Gran

 Hey Friends,

Thanks for stopping by to visit! I mentioned yesterday that it is a week full of birthday festivities

Ezra Is Golden 

Today’s birthday is golden. Ezra Joseph Daniels is 13 on January 13, 2026. 

Happy 13th birthday to my big little buddy! I cannot believe you are now a teenager! We love you! Can't wait to celebrate with you!

It seems like only yesterday he was three years old and arresting me, trying to take me to jail. Ezra would lock me behind his imaginary jail bars. When I would roll out, he would say, "How did you get through those heavy metal bars and doors?" I tried my best to convince him that I had superpowers with my wheelchair to escape! Ezra would not buy my story! Oh, the precious memories!

Celebrating Gran

We started the week off with Gran’s birthday. Click HERE to read her 2026 birthday blog post.  

Mom and I met up with both sets of my grandparents yesterday. We had a lovely lunch to celebrate Gran’s birthday. 

Lunch was scrumptious. We tried a new US restaurant that came highly recommended! Firebirds was incredible. I will definitely want to visit there again in the future!

The family time was even more valuable! I am thankful for every time I get to spend time with all of my grandparents! I love them also very much, and I would not be the person. I am today without them!

I will leave you with a few pictures from yesterday's meal. I hope you enjoy your virtual lunch! Sorry cannot be the real thing. Just take my word for it, that it was

Bye for now.

Foodie Friday 1/9/26

 Hey Friends,

Thank you for stopping by to visit. Today I am going to tell you about an exciting time we had around Christmas. It is time for another installment of Foodie Friday. We are rewinding to December for this episode. 

For several years, we have gone out to eat dinner around Christmas with Uncle Steve and Karen. Most of the years we have gone to a family favorite, J Alexanders. 

This has been one of our favorite holiday traditions. Now we have had tears without Dad. I am so glad this is something we have kept going. 

Of course, we terribly miss Dad! He always loved delicious food! The prime rib from J. Alexander's was his favorite! A fine dinner with his Buba was absolutely one of Dad’s favorite things. Now is a great time to reminisce about our memories and create new ones. 

The 2025 Christmas dinner at J. Alexanders was fabulous. This year, we met up with Uncle Steve, Aunt Karen, JoJo and Isaac. 

Sorry, not sorry for making you hungry with these food pics. The food was incredible. I am already looking forward to next time. 

See you all tomorrow. I have to go; I am hungry now.

DRPC New Year’s Revival 2026

 Hey Friends,

Thanks for stopping by! I hope your new year is off to a great start! Tonight is the final night of New Year's revival at DRPC. 

Pastor Jon Isaacs has been preaching outstandingly this week. We have thoroughly enjoyed getting see and visit with Bro. Jon and Sis. Heidi!

We had to miss Tuesday night due to recovery from sickness. Wednesday night's watch night service was excellent. We had communion. It is always a special time at DRPC. 2025 ended greatly. Last night, the Lord visited us so sweetly. 

Last night, we also attended an annual gathering at the home of Bro. Jeff and Sis. Debbie Roberts. The food and fellowship was grand!

I am excited to see what God has in store for us tonight. Here are some pictures from Wednesday and Thursday nights. 

See you tomorrow.
