It's good to hear Jonathon Francis has finished his treatments and doing well.

Glad to hear Frank Patrick is home after spending a night or so in the hospital recently.

Thursday was a play date at our house for Kullon Patrick and Gracie Smith. Janna Womack was on hand to play also!

Monday of Spring Break was a grand opening of a new establishment in town but it was in an old building. JimBo's officially opened that day with a lot of "shooting the breeze" farmers and such on hand. It is located in the old Cooper Garage Building. Currently Jimmy Mingle, new owner and operator, is opening up for breakfast hours only - 5:30 to 9:30 a.m. Monday through Saturday. Hallean Tate is the cook and good'un.

Some information on the name: Jimmy is known as Daddy Jim to the grandchildren and his late wife, Elaine, was known as Bo so hence the name.

Lisa Reed was off to Bridgestone Arena to enjoy the last Bob Segar Concert which was held Saturday the 28th. She was joined by several friends.

Todd and Susan Turney, Lauren and Mackenzie with Sandy McDaniel and Mary Kemp spent Spring Break on a "Liberty of the Seas Cruise".

Tim and DeAnna Reed are celebrating their 25th anniversary early. They left out Sunday of Spring Break to spend the week on the sunny beaches of Cancun, Mexico.

Monday of Spring Break Janna Womack, Gracie Smith, Alayna Reed, Adrianna Reed, and William and Grant Buterbaugh checked out the new Jump Street Indoor Trampoline Park in Murfreesboro. We were joined by Shannon Patrick, Kullon and Shiloh, Reagan Vaughn and Kyleigh, and Vicky Walker, Haley and Brett.

The Patrick group enjoyed lunch afterwards at Arby's.

Alayna Reed experienced an April Fools, well, maybe it was her birthday. Coming home from her daily run, she found the house decorated and was then treated to a lunch at Demo's by Janna Womack, Tiffany and Hannah Junker and Adrianna Reed. On returning home, she found chocolate covered strawberries waiting for her.

Cheyenne Fann and Blake Jackson begin our birthday wishes on the 7th for this week. Cheyenne turns 18 and Blake hits the 15 mark. On the 8th Scott Turney, Katie Irene Dunn and Shirley Mingle all celebrate. For the 9th Michael Nichols, David Dunn, Ronnie Blake Gandy, and Jerry Bryan and twin Geraldine Bryan Farless light up their candles (be careful David!). Brenda Davenport, Katelyn Duggin, Taylor Melton and Hunter Eidson all get their cake on the 10th. Tina Fletcher hits the 54th on the 11th the same day David Gaither turns over a new year. The 13th belongs to Roy Pruitt and Callie Francis. Finishing up the week on the 14th are Deborah Leach Shahan and Aimee Savannah Mears. Happy birthday you all!
