Regina Payton visited with her mother Martha Payton this past week. She arrived on Wednesday afternoon. Martha reports, “We decided to try our skill at power washing the house, screens, windows and lawn furniture, which was easier than expected. Brad Payton came on Thursday afternoon with a beautiful bouquet of red roses for Mother’s Day, so naturally we put him to work also. By the time evening arrived we decided to drive to Cooper to the Dairy Queen for a hamburger supper. Brad returned home on Friday evening after a very nice visit. Regina and I drove to Longview on Saturday to visit my sister and brother from Pittsburg. We let Luby’s cook our lunch on Saturday. We had a wonderful visit and, as always, the drive to east Texas is always nice. Everyone returned home safely.”

Dacy and Destri treated their mother, Yvonne Weir, to lunch at the Smoky Rose in Dallas on Friday, May 4th, and then they then attended a Cinco de Mayo festival at Nico’s (Destri’s son’s)  day care. Yvonne comments, “It was fun, but Nico refused to wear the mustache or sombrero.” Yvonne spent the night with Destri and Eben Friday night.

Wesley Weir went bowling with My Heroes on Saturday and played Bright Star Baseball on Monday night. Yvonne adds, “It was a great night for baseball.”

Kim & Lee Beck are proud to announce that Madeleine Beck graduated with her Bachelors of Science degree from Texas Christian University on Saturday. Go Hornfrogs!

The annual Aiguier Cemetery Association meeting will be held on Sunday, June 3rd, on the cemetery grounds. A covered dish lunch will be shared at noon, followed by the business meeting.

Rylan, Brailon, and Slaiden Joslin spent the night with us on Friday. We enjoyed being outside watching the boys play.

Our granddaughter, Jaidyn Joslin, was baptized at Posey Baptist Church on Sunday. There to celebrate her decision, were her parents, Tiffany Vaughn and Malcolm Joslin, her brothers, Kenden and Morgan Joslin and Morgan’s fiancée Allison, her uncle, Delayne Vaughn, and Chip and myself, along with her church family. After the service we returned to our house for Mother’s Day lunch, which Chip prepared. Also, Chip, Delayne, and I visited Grace Vaughn for Mother’s Day.

Landon, Laiken, Rylan, Brailon and Slaiden celebrated Mother’s Day with Laiken’s family and they enjoyed swimming that afternoon.
