Happy Birthday 2025 Papaw Danny Morgan

 Hey Friends,

Thank you for visiting us on this beautiful Saturday. I want to take a moment to honor a special family member. 


Tomorrow is my Papaw Danny Morgan’s birthday. Mom and I want to wish him a very Happy Birthday!


We are so thankful for Papaw. He is the greatest Dad, Papaw and Pap-Pap! Papaw always makes life fun. 


Papaw we love you so much! Thank you for the always being there for us! You have been a constant support in our life!


We cannot see you to celebrate this weekend. Hopefully, we can connect with you in just a few days!


My original plan was to use one of Papaw's favorite sayings as a “Sunday Sanity” tomorrow. Now I have something else on my brain for tomorrow. That is why I chose today to Papaw’s birthday!


I just wanted to wish you a very happy birthday! And once again, tell you that we love you from the bottom of our hearts! I pray you have a wonderful birthday! each year is a gift from God and you are also a gift from God to our family!


Thanks for reading! See you all tomorrow.

Foodie Friday Friends Family And Furry Friends

Hey Friends,

Happy Friday! Welcome to August! 2025 is sailing right by. I find it hard to believe that fall is right around the corner!

I have had an incredible week! It has been wonderful to fellowship with family and friends. We have enjoyed some delicious food along the way! It is a joy to experience laughter and friendship!

My friends Emily and Nathan Roberts came to get me on Wednesday evening. We had wanted to go out for dinner for a long time, and Wednesday was the appointed day. Mexican was on the menu, and I was all for that!

Alcapulco was just as good as ever! Our friends there took great care of us. Pictures do not do the food justice. I apologize that you cannot taste or smell this food! 




I enjoyed the evening with Emily and Nathan! Thank you so much, my dear friends for spending part of your day with me! You will never know how much it meant to me!


On the way home from Acapulco, a sudden heavy rain popped up. We had to wait it out for a few moments in the car. 

Wednesday, my cousin Lauren Osborn sent me this picture of the beach cottage. This was taken from the Dodds church parking lot. 

Thanks, Lauren, for capturing this beautiful picture. I love to see a rainbow! I am reminded of the promises of God every time! 


Also, here is another photo that I captured that evening. it was cool enough for me to enjoy my porch and a beautiful sunset!


Thursday, it was time for more family and fellowship! The rain continued so the party came to me! The beach cottage became the party house.

They brought Raising Cane's with them too! It was scrumptious. my friends spoil me! 😂


I was thrilled to have my cousins Sarah, Bethany, Rebecca, Emerson, Grace Brylee and Clayton visit me! I think we all laughed until we hurt. It was just what the doctor ordered for all of us!

I say it a lot, but I am so thankful for these ladies and their families! They have been my heroes since I was a girl. We have grown up together and experienced a lot of life. I'm so thankful for them! Thank you for taking time for me! I love you all so much!


Yes, we missed you, Rodney, Philip, Brandon and Bryson! I knew I would get that question from them. 🤣

Here is one more visitor to the beach cottage I caught on camera this week. 


I have seen rabbits often. This little bunny stayed in this spot for a long time! I guess he was being my guard rabbit that night. I usually see them down by our barn, not in front of the house.

Thank you for reading. See you all tomorrow!

Happy 81st Birthday Martha Boggs

 Hey Friends,

Today, we celebrate and reflect on the great day of July 30, 1944. Martha Emma Isaacs was born in a little cabin in Kentucky. 


That baby girl grew up to be a wonderful lady! She has left a significant impression on many lives during her lifetime. We all thank God for Martha Isaacs Boggs!


Our family would not be the same without our wonderful Mom, Mamaw and Nana Great! We thank God for giving us the absolute best! 


I know that I can say this from our whole big Boggs clan: We love you, Mamaw! We are all so grateful for the blessing you are to us in our lives! 


Your prayers, love, and unconditional support mean the world to us! I hope you have the best birthday ever! Thank God for letting you make it 81 years!


Thank you for being there for Mom and I! The words do not exist to adequately. Tell you how much we love you and appreciate you! We are thrilled that we can call you our family! You brighten our world!


Last year we had a great big 80th birthday bash! It was a wonderful day! I love looking back on these memories! Click here to see her party and pictures. 


My cousin Lauren Osborn put together this video last year for Mamaws 80th birthday. In this video, you will see the Boggs grandkids and the great grandkids.  Thanks to my cousins for allowing me to share this on the blog! Victor, I owe you!😂


Thanks for reading!

Gran And Papaw Time

Hey Friends,
 
I hope you are having a great Tuesday! We are doing good. 

Today I have an eye doctor appointment. This time I will be seeing a new doctor. Sadly, my long-time favorite eye doctor moved. 

I am not expecting any complications today, but I am a little nervous about seeing a new doctor. I appreciate prayers!

Today I am rewinding to Friday
I spent time with my Gran and Papaw. They had appointments. Then we went to lunch and shopping.  Of course, we found our way to DQ. It was a great day!

Here are pictures from our time together. I love my grandparents! I am so grateful for the memories we made. I cherish days like these!!








Thanks for reading! I will see you all tomorrow!

The Alabama Isaacs Visit DRPC

 Hey Friends,

I am so glad you came to visit today. I hope you had an excellent weekend. There was a lot of activity. I will spread them over a few posts. 

Sunday morning at Dryden Road Pentecostal Church, I was surprised to have several visitors! One family in particular is extra special to me!

Bro Jon, Sis. Heidi and Anna Kate Isaacs were passing through Ohio. They chose to bless us with their presence at DRPC yesterday!

We love their family immensely. They have been special friends to us for a long time, and it is always great to be with them!

Bro. Jon preached a fantastic message last night. We had an excellent altar service, which was a great blessing to all of us!

I was thrilled to see my dear friends, whom we have considered family for years! 

Thank God for sending the Isaacs to visit DRPC! Their visit made my day, and it was what my heart needed yesterday!

I will close with some pictures I took yesterday. Thank you for reading.

Celebrating Miss Myla Alexander

 Hey Friends,

It is great to see you here for a moment! Thank you for choosing to spend part of your day with us. 

A few weeks ago, I was blessed to attend the birthday party of one of the sweetest young ladies. I cannot believe Miss Myla Alexander is 16 years old! How in the world is that even possible?


It seems like only 10 years ago that we celebrated her arrival to this earth! She was an a miracle and an answer to prayer!

Now she is a beautiful young lady with a heart devoted to God! She is a prayer warrior! I am so proud of her. It melts my heart when I feel her praying with me at church!

I should not be shocked that Myla is an amazing girl; her parents are just totally awesome! 

Michael and Amanda Alexander are two of the most incredible people I have ever met! mom and I are blessed to have them in our circle friends that we count as family!

I have to mention Princess Everly! She is my little bestie who is always energetic and brings life to every party!


Michael and I were blessed to grow up together at DRPC and as fellow preacher's kids. I am so proud of him and his family! God blessed him with an amazing wife! I love Amanda so much! She has been a huge blessing to our church and to me personally!

I hope you are ready for a picture overload! It was a great honor to be there to celebrate her big 16th milestone with her! 

Myla, I love you so much! Thank you for being so awesome! I am so glad that I get to call you, my friend!

Here is a collection of photos from the evening. Some of them came from my phone and other people. It really was a great 16th birthday party.
