Sunday was Bro. Ricky Harris’s birthday and the congregation gathered around him and sang Happy Birthday! I know he enjoyed that!
Get well wishes to Wendy Harrell Dorby, who stepped on a sweet gumball coming out of the veterans museum Tupelo Thursday and broke her foot.
Busy week my friend, says Martha Box.
Thanking God for all He sees me through.
Had to take Candy Box to ER again. Sick and Weak. Had to rehydrate her system. Will follow up with more test!
Busy Friday with a group of hard working skilled tree cutters. Brought me to tears as they took down the sliver maple tree Honey and I had planted on our 25th anniversary.
It was a great day Sunday said Martha. I visited Pine Grove Baptist Church. So Lifted Up as the chior sang , “He Touched Me!” Bro. Scarborough brought our thoughts to Why We Love Jesus , cause He first loved us !
Good visit with Sis. Joyce Stevens, and Debbie on the porch this eve. That chocolate cake and chocolate coffee was a treat. Started planning the diet as I enjoyed the first scrumptious bite!
Diane Dukes said George Cossar State Park re-opened June 11. They have made a lot of improvements and hope everyone will come out and enjoy the park and meet the new manager, Brandon Sims, from Charleston.
They are also having Bingo Wednesday, June 17 from 2-4. Must be 55 or older to play. They are hoping for a big turn- out. Ping-Pong will once again be calling the numbers. Everyone enjoys him.
Diane and your writer share two great grandchildren, Haven Rose and Waylon Jr., who they call Dub.
They went swimming and Dub had the BEST time. He was shooting a big water gun. After playing in the pool, Haven Rose and Waylon, Jr. Dukes and Joanna Pullen attended a birthday party for Coy Havens, Haven Rose, and Waylon Jr.’s cousin. They had a great time . Tre Tre and Paw Haven’s, better known as Lisa and Tommy Havens, also have a pool that they played in and I’m sure the kids slept good Sunday night.
My great-grandson Bradley Holliday is going on his first mission trip with Emmanuel Baptist Church. They are going to Shocco Springs, Alabama. We are praying for a Christ filled week and a servants heart.
Debbie and Tommy McCool went to Alabama and spent the weekend with their granddaughter, Allison, and great granddaughter Lily Rose. Debbie said she got lots of holding and loving from my sweet great grand baby. We had a great trip.
Had a cookout for Allison’s birthday Sunday. She is 25, can’t believe it. Allie’s mother and daddy Angela and Patrick Dukes were there also.
Jacque and Adam Chambers finally got to take the new boat out, that they had bought on their Louisiana trip, Saturday evening to the Tillatoba lake. We took our little dog and she is gonna be a boat dog for sure, said Jacque. I layed out while Adam fished, but didn’t catch anything. We started treasure hunting with our dip net. We found all kinds of corks. She was digging in the brushes with the dip net; so glad we were alone out there. I am sure I would have been mistaken for a crazy person.
Mrs. Bettysue Chambers started her radiation treatments Wednesday in Tupelo. Betty will have them for a week. Her daughter, Wanda Sue Winters and daughter-in-law, Jenny Chambers have been taking her. Jacque’s father-in-law, Gary Chambers, cooked a seafood boil Saturday evening and we had all the fixing —shrimp, potatos, corn, lil smokies, mushrooms, and pineapple. Ooh-Wee it was so hot it made your lips tingle and nose run. Jacque made her famous grape salad and our friend Amanda Hughes made her TikTok chocolate cake that is absolutely delicious. Amanda and Tim Hughes of Oakland, Ms celebrated their 27th year of marriage Sunday, June 14th.
Happy birthday to Hannah Meacham on the 17th, Billy Stevens, Vivian Simmons and Mandy Robinson celebrate the 18th, Brother, and Jimmy Martin on the 21st. I pray you all have a great day.
Thought for the day…. There are 3 kinds of people in the world, those who are good at math, and those who aren’t.
