News For the Week of December 17, 2014

The weather these past few days has been so nice to finish Christmas shopping compared to last year's snow and ice and whatever combination dropped out of the sky. I am finishing my shopping but also just starting. I am a world class procrastinator and although I know I have to get it done I still put it off until the last minute it seems.

The Christmas program at New Mansion Church last Sunday night was very well attended. Bob and I certainly enjoyed watching all the three year old and younger participants as they enjoyed being in the program. Of course it was extremely difficult for them to stay in the place they were supposed to be in and that is what was so enjoyable to watch. It reminded me of a song I used to hear on the radio by Squire Parsons about Christmas in a little country church. It sure fits.

Last Thursday the students of Bradleyville, Plainview, Taneyville and Mark Twain Schools gathered in the gym of Bradleyville School and were provided new shoes from the Slusher Foundation. It looked like a very exciting time in the pictures I saw.

The last ballgame this year before Christmas break will be with Sparta, at Bradleyville on Thursday, December 18, starting at 5:00 in the afternoon. Both the girls and boys will play. The teams won't play again until after school starts back up in January.

Birthdays for the coming week include: December 17: Marge Combs, Sierra Rentfro; December 18: Donna Newman, Katie Reece, Kenyon Whittaker; December 19: Alva Johnson, Kenneth Sims, Maxine Mason; December 20: Jessi Laughlin, Melissa McCleary, Jarell Yeary; December 24: Dakota Isaacs, Pauline Lee, Kim Pollard.


Anniversaries for the coming week include: December 19: Bob and Sue Birdsong, Kenton and Linda Wiggins; December 23: Mike and Vicky Blair; December 24: Bob and Karen Case.
