Weekend Woundup and Weview #33

It was been a great weekend with work on the house, time with family and friends and two great services to kick off revival at Anchor of Hope near Lebanon, Ohio.

I will have more posts later about progress on the house over the weekend, but here are a few pictures from some of it. 

John Mattox finished sanding the drywall Friday and headed back to Kentucky.



After Jimmie finished setting most of the tile, he hung and secured the metal door in the safe room. I want to write more about that but here is one picture of it.



Kelly Jo, Mom, Lisa and Odie worked on clean up from the drywall finishing that evening. They scraped mud, swept and carried scraps until it looked way better.





Jimmie's trailer was nearly full of cabinets and interior doors that he brought from Oklahoma. I need two more posts to tell you all about that. We needed to get him unloaded so he pulled up to the house Friday evening and we unloaded all of that into the garage.














My nephew Isaac and our neighbor Wyatt helped with the bigger pieces.















The cabinets are so beautiful and Odie is very happy with them!








We will have to carry the pieces to the proper rooms in the house later but the carrying from the garage is a whole lot better than carrying from the barn.

Jimmie finished up a few more tasks Saturday morning and shortly after lunch it was time for him to drive west toward Oklahoma.


It was a sad, sad day.



He made it home safely Sunday evening. I am glad he made it but I asked him if it was too late to turn around!

Saturday evening we took our sound equipment to Anchor of Hope in the BoggsMobile. We could have loaded the equipment in the Green Machine but it would have meant double handling everything. Plus the bus had not been driven in 10 days and it needed to run. 

Steve, Karen and Deidre met us at the church while we were doing sound check and then we grabbed a bite to eat with them. The helped us get backed into the drive and into the barn after dark. It was nice to spend time with them without hammers or brooms in our hands.😁

Sunday morning we began revival at Anchor and enjoyed both services. We will have more pictures and more about the services but here are a few pictures now.











That pretty much wraps up the weekend. We will be working on the house during the day and preaching revival at night. Come be with us if you can. We would love to have you.

Thanks for spending a few moments of your Monday with us.

View Out The Front Window August 6, 2017

Here are the links from our posts this last week.








We moved the bus yesterday to Anchor of Hope to unload the sound equipment but I forgot to take a picture out the window while we were there. This awesome view picture will have to do.



That is Odie's custom tile shower constructed by Bro. Jimmie Radcliffe. I will have a bunch more pictures next week.

We begin revival near Lebanon, Ohio at Anchor of Hope this morning. We will be there until Wednesday and we would love to have you join us.

I hope you have a great Sunday.

Family Fun That HAD to Be Blogged

Hey Friends,

This has been a fabulous week. If you have not read the posts from this week, please go back and read them. It will give you a glimpse into what has been going on the last few days. 

So much has been accomplished on the house project. I have been smiling all week because I am so excited. It is looking more and more like a real house every day. 

There is no way for me to properly thank everyone who has worked so hard. I so appreciate all the hard labor and long hours put into this project. Thank you to everyone that has participated in any way.

I am looking forward to tomorrow. We get to be with Pastor Bill Lamb and our dear friends at Anchor of Hope. Revival starts in the morning and is scheduled through Wednesday night. If you are nearby, come join us in service in Lebanon, Ohio. We always have a wonderful time at Anchor of Hope. 

On Monday night I was invited to join in a birthday dinner for my Great Aunt Connie. All of her children and most of her grandchildren gathered at Marion's Pizza to celebrate. The food was delicious and being with my Aunt and cousins was even better. I enjoy getting to see this part of my family. 

I have to include a few pictures from the evening. Marion's is a local favorite pizza place of many people. My favorite pizza there is Sauerkraut and Pepperoni so this was my dinner. 


Now here are pictures of some family members. I was told this had to be "Blogged."

Deb and Hollis


Trying to get Hollis to take a selfie and silly one is the only way he would agree to it. 


Amanda, Dave and there new beautiful baby girl. 


Aunt Connie with her children Deb, Lisa, Delmar and Geneva


Here you go Mike, you are being "Blogged" again like you wanted. 


Logan and Aaron 


We ended the night with a stop at Bills Donut Shop. Bills is another local favorite. Dad went to school with one of the owners. Geneva and I had to get a picture by the sign for the blog. 


That is a wrap on my Monday night fun, I hope you enjoyed coming along. Have a good weekend.
