Well, would you look at today's date it is July 3rd. Today is a national holiday, in my book. 

Today is my beautiful Mother's birthday. I wanted to take a moment to celebrate her today. You can help me wish my Mom a happy birthday in the comments below.

Happy birthday, Mama! I hope you have a fabulous birthday! You are the most amazing lady in the whole world. I am blessed to get to have you as my mother. That is a blessing that I daily thank God for giving me. I would not be alive without you. I would not be the person I am today without your guidance. I love you with all my heart. 

Now Back To Scheduled Programing

We are rewinding a few weeks for this post. June 11 2021, was a big day for my dear cousin Elena Lamb. It was the day she married her prince charming, Frankie Simon. 

I was able to attend the wedding with my cousin, Lisa Isaacs. We were thrilled to be there to celebrate with them! The wedding was beautiful! It was a hot June day. Thankfully the storms held off and Elena was able to have everything outdoors, as she wanted.

This wedding was a fun filled event. It was great to witness two people that were made for each other celebrate their love and start their life together! It was exciting to be with a lot of friends and family that night to celebrate the happy couple!

Elena and Frankie, congratulations! I look forward to watching life unfold for you. I will be cheering you on from the sidelines. I am thankful that God brought you all together! 

I will leave you with some of my pictures from the wedding. Thanks for reading. I will see you again next Saturday.

Lisa and Odie ready for the wedding.

I saw a friend Trish that I met at a youth camp in the late 90's. It was good to reconnect with her at 20 years.

Our friend Lance Ragsdale was at the wedding too. I had to get a picture to send to Dad.

Hey Friends,

This is Odie reporting in from a moving BoggsMobile. Currently we are somewhere between Evansville, Indiana and Pine Prairie, Louisiana. I am praying for smooth travel days over the next couple of days. 

We had a fabulous week in Evansville under the tent. It was incredible to watch God drawing people to Himself. I am so grateful we get to be a small part of showing a loving God to the world. It was a pleasure to work along the side of Pastor John Eaton and the congregation at Full Gospel Mission. They have a great burden to reach and love their community. The Lord definitely rewarded their efforts during the revival. 

Monday morning the Gospel Tent will go up in Louisiana. We are looking forward to a great week ahead with Pastor Barry Gautreaux and our friends from Christian Tabernacle. Revival begins on Tuesday night in Pine Prairie and goes through Sunday.

Mr. and Mrs. Davis 

Two Saturdays ago was a very special day for my friend Brentni. You can read more about my friend by clicking here. It was an honor to be with Brentni and her husband on their wedding day!

It was an extremely beautiful wedding! It made my heart glad to see my friend marrying someone that truly loves her! Jordan was happy to see his beautiful bride! 

The bride and groom now live in Stuttgart, Arkansas. They are beginning the life as husband and wife and pastoring a church there. I am excited to see what God has planned for them together. 

Friends and family gathered from several places to celebrate the marriage of Brentni and Israel “Jordan” Davis. I enjoyed the bonus of getting to see lots of friends and make some new friends that day too. 

Now I will let you see some picture highlights from the wedding day. I hope you enjoy the pictures! Thank you for visiting with me today. Have a fantastic weekend.

My favorite picture from the whole day. This was Jordan’s reaction to seeing his Bride!
