100 Years Old and Counting

This is a very special tribute to a wonderful, loving, Christian wife, mother, grandmother and greatgrandmother. On February 16, 1909 Verda Rushing was born. She later became a loving wife to Henry Hyche and they raised 4 children, Ken Hyche, Eddie Hyche, Harold Durant (Red) Hyche and Linda Hyche(Sides). Then she became grandmother to 7 grandchildren. Later she became the greatgrandmother to 16 greatgrandchildren. She is a wonderful woman and we all love her very much. I have never known anyone to live as long as she has. Wow what an accomplishment and the best yet is that she as always remained a faithful Christian woman. We all know one day she will join her husband in Heaven for all eternity.

Happy 100th Mammaw.

Valentine's Day and Weight loss

Happy Valentine's day to all. I had a great one. Barry gave me a single longstem yellow rose and the kids each gave me whoppers, raisinettes,and dr. pepper. Then we went to Nauvoo for Barry's grandmothers 100th birthday party. The whole family from out of state and all came and had a good day.
Happy 100th Mammaw, We love you.
Also weigh in was good this week as well. I lost 1.8 pounds for a weight watchers total of 110. Scale back Alabama is around 11 to 12 I think we will see on the final weigh in.
Hope all have a great week.

Valentine Banquet, Valentine Party and Field Trip

Last night we had our annual Valentine Banquet at church. The youth deacons and Chance did a great job with the steaks and all. he one's who decorated did a great job as well. The place looked great and the Young people(as well as the adults) seemed to have a great time. Thanks to all who had a part in it.
Today Christopher had his Valentine Party at school. I did not get to go, but Barry went for me. The pictures look like they had a blast. Christopher's shirt also looked like he enjoyed himself as well. It has pizza all over it.
Mary had a field trip today to the Birmingham Museum of Art and then to eat at Chick-fil-A. I went with her, so that is why I couldn't go with Christopher. It was a rush through the gallery and didn't see but a few items. Chick-fil-A did a great job, being ready for the kids. about 50-60 something 3rd graders. I checked Mary out from there and we went to Claire's to see if I could find something to go in her hair for her pageant next month. Yeah, she has decided to be in the school pageant again this year. She is going to be in a almost fusia colored dress. It i going to be pretty. I am still trying to decide how to fix her hair. I bought 2 rhinestone combs ofr her hair. Any ideas feel free to let me know.
