❤️ My heart is so full today! ❤️

I am beyond grateful for the amazing community we live in! A HUGE thank you to everyone who took time out of their Saturday to help with the Oaklawn Cemetery cleanup! 🍂

It may not seem like much to some, but every helping hand, every trimmed bush, every picked-up stick, and every hour volunteered makes a difference!

Our cemetery is more than just a piece of land. It’s a place filled with history, memories, and loved ones who helped build the community we call home. ❤️

THIS is what small-town living is all about! Neighbors helping neighbors, people showing up, and a community coming together to take pride in something that belongs to all of us.

I can’t thank everyone enough! I’m so proud to be part of a community that continues to remind me that it truly takes a village — and we have a pretty incredible one! ❤️🍁

📢 REMINDER! The Library Will Be CLOSED Saturday, October 10th!

🌸 It’s Oaklawn Cemetery Cleanup Day! 🌸

Looking for a great way to introduce your kids to community service and giving back? This is the PERFECT opportunity! ❤️

Take a peek at my last post! We aren’t asking for anything crazy—just trimming down some peony bushes, picking up sticks, and helping get our cemetery ready for winter!

It’s also a wonderful opportunity to teach our younger generation about cemetery etiquette, respecting gravestones, and honoring those who came before us. ❤️

🌿 Just 30 minutes of your day can make a difference!

Bring the kids, bring a friend, or bring the whole family! Even the smallest helping hands can make a BIG impact!

Small towns thrive when we all pitch in, and what better way to teach our kids that community pride starts with US!

❤️ It takes a village, and we’d love to see ours show up! ❤️

What do you get when you ask a group of kids “What is community?” “ What places or things are important to your community?”

You get the best card board box community through a child’s eye! The kids spent the morning working on building important locations in their community.

🌿 Saturday’s Cemetery Cleanup! 🌿

It’s really not that bad — just LOTS of peony bushes to trim and pesky mulberry trees growing where they shouldn’t! 😂

Bring w**d eaters, hand tools, trucks/trailers and YOURSELF! 💪

Lots of hands and we’ll be done in no time! 50 people doing a little is a whole lot easier than 5 doing it all! ❤️

Come help us get the cemetery
