Weekend Recap 4/14/25

Hey Friends,

Thank you for dropping by to visit us! I hope you are doing good today! Well, here is a recap of a busy weekend. 

Mom mowed the yard for the first time this season. It had been too wet to mow for a while, but she caught it dry enough for a trim this weekend. 


Uncle Tommy came and did the weed eating for us. We appreciate his help immensely. 

I had a fun girl's night with some of my church friends on Friday evening. We all brought food on a board or tray. I brought snacks from Bucee’s. We played games, laughed and felllowshipped.











Mom went to dinner with Renae, Jacqueline and Albany Coffman. She had fun catching up with them! Looks like Albany enjoyed the ride!


Here is Mom’s food from Cheddars, and she said it was delicious. 


Saturday afternoon Gran and Papaw came to see us. We enjoyed visits to Alcapulco and Sams Club.







Sunday was filled with two services at DRPC. Also, with food and fellowship with friends. 









This weekend is a wrap. I hope you enjoyed the highlights. It was a good weekend. We are looking forward to a great week ahead.

See you later!

Home Again

 Hey Friends,

Yesterday started dark and early for us. It was a travel day, and we were at the Oklahoma City airport by 5:30 AM to catch a 7 AM flight.

Thanks to Bro. Bruce and Sis. Priscilla Mayhan, they were a great host for the weekend! Bro. Bruce Mayhan took this pic at the airport yesterday. It was much too early for pictures.


The Lord, once again granted us traveling mercies, and we are so very grateful! Due to weather conditions, both flights were extremely bumpy!

Flight number one was from Oklahoma City to Atlanta, Georgia. I was able to catch a little bit of shut eye on that flight. that was much needed!

We had a layover in Atlanta. The weather caused us to be grounded there a little longer than planned. We made it out of there safely, an hour behind schedule.

By the time we reached Dayton, Ohio it was 4:15 PM when the plane landed. Once we left the airport, it was time to head to church at DRPC. 


I am glad that we were able to make it for church. It was wonderful to be in service with our church family. Our Pastor preached a wonderful message on revival!

After church, we were in need of dinner. We found ourselves at Dolly's again. if you missed my post about Dolly's, go back to Friday’s post. 


Several other church members had the same idea, and it was great to visit with all of them!



Now as I type this, my eyes are growing heavy. It is already Monday morning, and I am ready for a long nap in my comfy bed.

Thank you for reading! I will be right back here tomorrow! See you then.

Weekend Wrap Up 3/24/25

Hey Friends,

Can you believe the pace at which we are zooming through March? To me, it seems like the month just began yesterday, and now we are in the last week of it.

We had a fabulous weekend full of family, friends, fun and church! I think that’s an excellent recipe for a wonderful weekend! 

Let’s rewind to Thursday. We met our wonderful family/friends, Pastor E.J., Sis. Lacey, Reese, Carter, Hudson and Stella Lamb for lunch. 

Most of you will not be surprised at our lunch of choice. Yes, we went to Acapulco, which was as good as ever! The fellowship was even better! We love this family so dearly. I always leave feeling refreshed when we spend time with them! They have a way of cheering me up!






It was the first day of spring, but the weather did not get the notification. It was quite cold. I even saw a few snowflakes! That did not stop me from enjoying a free ice cream to celebrate the first day of spring at our local Dairy Queen. We enjoyed it from me inside of our heated car with the heated seats on! It sure tasted good


As I mentioned in Yesterday’s Sunday Sanity post, we went to our home church at DRPC. bro. Andrew Blevins preached, and it was great to be in service with our church family!


On Friday, I was not hitting on all eight cylinders; my head was throbbing. I chose to spend the day at home resting. Mom went to visit some of our family that evening, and she did not take any pictures. 

Saturday morning we visited with some more of our family. It was great to see all of them! Thankfully, I felt much better. 

Saturday night found us a little less than an hour away. I found that the Martins were going to be in concert. We have always enjoyed the Martins music for many many years. They were just as good as ever! I will share more about that in a later post. 



Sunday morning we were back at DRPC. Our Pastor taught a wonderful Sunday school lesson. 

I snapped a few photos during service. I could not pass up an opportunity to document my cousin Katie behind the Bible stand. 😂


The kids choir. 


Then we were blessed to hear Bro. J.R. Alexander preach. It was great to have Bro. J.R. And Sis. Teresa home visiting. 


Sunday evening, we were in service at The Anchor of Hope in Lebanon, Ohio.
we love our friends at The Anchor so much! 

A few months ago, Pastor E.J. Lamb asked us to come and sing and Uncle Danny Morgan to preach. The Lord blessed us with a wonderful service! Uncle Danny preached really really good! Mom and I were blessed to be part of the service!

I will wrap up this post with my pictures from Sunday night. See you all tomorrow!
