Mother's Day 2011

Mother's Day 2011
     After worship service for the LORD this morning David and Josh took me out to eat at a Mexican restaurant by the mall here in Tupelo. We then went down to the Gum Tree Festival to look around.

We listened to the band, The Embrace, Cody Hickman and  two other young men who came from our church and are now in other ministries sang a set of their own songs at the festival.  Cody's mom, 

Melanie( in the white dress in the background) is a good friend.  Cody dedicated and wrote the last song in the set to her.  They have really improved over the last couple of years since we last heard them at the Gum Tree Festival.

                                                 Cody Hickman in the middle.  Melanie homeschooled him and his brother the last years of high school.  His brother Martin, has been to Africa on short term missions, and is now in Nashville in Physical Therapy School( he graduated from Ms. State University), and his wife and him are expecting a child in August.
