     Not much to report this week.  Everyone is trying to stay indoors and keep warm.  Although, last Friday was so nice, we got the rest of our outdoor Christmas decorations taken down.

     Last Thursday, a large crowd enjoyed the Elementary Basketball games and the soup supper afterwards.  The little ones were lots of fun to watch and the soups were delicious!!  Hats off to the cooks.

This is a post from a 16  or 17 year old boy in Eads, Avery Snover, who is well liked  by many people.  He works at Crow’s Grocery Store and the Theatre so he sees people from different walks of life.  “As you get older you start to see who was raised properly…..so many people lack basic respect.” 

  There is another little baby boy on Hickman Street.  His name is Kyce Rainard who was born to Kenan and Ashley Gooden.  His big brother, Kytan, is looking forward to having a playmate.
