Happy 55th Birthday, Debra Ann

I wish my daughter, Debra Ann, a Happy 55th Birthday today. Debra is the mother of two sons, one in the Air Force serving our country for 12 years, and a daughter who has given her two grandsons. She is a nanny for two doctors caring for their young daughter. She is a hard-working mother, and I’m proud of her accomplishments. I love her so much and hope her birthday will be great! xoxo

Happy "Heavenly" 60th Birthday, William David Boyd

I wish my only son, William David Boyd, a Happy "Heavenly" Birthday today. He would have been 60 years old. He was my second born, who passed away on October 26, 1964, from Hyaline Membrane Disease of the Lungs. He was born before my oldest daughter was a year old on November 11. This is the only picture of my daughters with their brother, most likely taken in 1974 or 1975. I treasure this picture; I will be with him in heaven one day.  

A Rocky Springs Campground Birthday Bash Last Week

Here are random pictures taken a week ago at Will's, 7, and Noah's, 6, birthday bash at the Rocky Springs Campground off the Natchez Trace Parkway. The family had a great time enjoying the beautiful weather and the boys' birthday party. They got a lot of nice toys, etc., to play with and enjoy. Two great-grandmothers were blessed to attend the big event for Will and Noah.

A Hunting Lunch Break

I'm waving to my former husband on his deer stand at Brown's Point on Kings Point Island, north of Vicksburg, MS., years ago after a lunch break.  I'm returning to my stand to finish hunting in our great MS outdoors.
