Hope all mothers had a happy day. I was wishing for a good rain; did receive some beautiful cards. Thanks to all. Oh – ask me about the picture I received!

Even though it was the day before Mother’s Day, Bobby Jean Hagedorn and daughter, Sandra Jones, enjoyed the fish fry on Saturday. The fish were caught by members of the family earlier and according to Bobby, were delicious and several members of their families thought so too.

We did not have fish, but the bountiful table at Mike, Debbie, Raney and Cooper Moore’s home in Kyle contained all sorts of delicious food on Mother’s Day. Enjoying the meal, fellowship and families were Margaret Holt, Virginia Moore and Becca Schultz of Kyle, Daniel and Sharon Heideman, Raymond and Myrtle Heideman of Uhland, Clarence Heideman of San Marcos and Brian Heideman of Austin. We had a great Mother’s Day. Thanks, Mike and Debbie and sons.
Don and Tracie Crowell and Logan spent Mother’s Day visiting with Don’s mother, Janet Crognal and family in Cibolo.
