June 27th 2006

Rain Rain GO AWAY!!!

I guess from the front page of our website you can tell that we had an interesting night getting all the water out of our basement!! We had to stay on top of it for about 3 hours before it quit. It fianlly did and we got it all cleaned up. It rained here like cats and dogs. I never have really thought that, that term made sense but we all use it!!

Today is more office work. Getting cd's done for some folks and getting our letters and flyers ready for our up coming services in July.

Tyler is sleeping and when he sleeps this is when I fit in most of my office work. Peace for the both of us!!!!

Thank you for your prayers for us over the weekend. We had great meeting in Ohio and lots of fun up in Mio , MI. before we left for Ohio as well.

We got in late to Ohio, 10:30 p.m. and then set up our equipment. So bed time for Tyler and us was not until 1:00 a.m. So those prayers that I say we need because of late night early mornings now you know that this is true!!

We look forward to seeing you all somewhere out there. Keep us in your prayers.

Keep on serving HIM,
Andrea Forester

HELLO!

For those of you that might have read my blog the last few days and saw that it said June 14th. Well, I really just wrote it two days ago, but when I checked it I saw what I had done.

Time flies when you are having fun. I have been a week behind all week. It is rough getting old. Or maybe living with an older husband, makes you old. Just kidding Honey! HEE HEE! For those of you that have seen us in concert you have heard Mark say some time or another that it is rough getting old . He is only 29, but will be 30 in September. I am only 27!!! YEE HAW!!

Today was picture day for Tyler. We have tried to get his picture done each month that he has been with us. We decided this when he was born. When you went through what we did with him. Each passing day is special. It is just that each month we celebrate by a picture and a treat!

Actually Tyler had a fun treat day 2 days ago. He had a teething cookie and REAL chocolate pudding. BOY did he like that!! We were just having fun!!

I am in the office working again today while Tyler is asleep. Of course now that I said that you know that he will wake up ...right???

Thank you for your prayers and support to us. I will give you an update on us shortly until then. Keep on serving and loving our Lord, for HE IS WORTHY!!

In Christ,
Andrea

Howdy Everbody!!

That's how we say it down south! Thank you for taking the time today to see what has been in store for me the last week.

Well let's see. Yesterday I cleaned my stove, washed down walls, sandpapered a window that needed painting in the bathroom. Painted the brick in my basement, in the laundry room and all the other normal daily requriments of haveing a 11 month old.

Today I am doing office work. But before I started that. I cleaned my kitchen floor and relaid some tile that had come up!! WHEW! I am tired and did not know it!!HA!

I guess you thought that when I started this blog you were wondering what I would have to say about the ministry. Well, I love the work of the Lord and what He has called us to do. It is everything else that life has to offer that will finanlly take me HOME!!! Work will kill you!! I love working. It is good for you. Character my dad and mom said!! That's what it builds.

That is one thing that I am proud of my mom and dad enstilling in me. BE CONSTRUCTIVE WITH YOUR TIME!!! If I heard this once I heard it a million times. And I am thankful for it. I don't mind working. And it is all because of my parents!! Thanks mom and dad!

Pray for us .We are startinga new album this week and it requires alot of work. Especially for Mark, making the tracks. The devil always seems to fight us greatly during this time. THANKS for your prayers.

Until next time I'll keep working and you keep on praying for me and we will chat again about my daily life at home and on the road. Thanks again for your many prayers.

In His Service,
Andrea Forester

Howdy!

Well God blessed us again on a wonderful weekend at New Life Bible Church in Bellville MI. What a blessing and a joy these people are! We always enjoy being with them.

Today is RECOVERY DAY!! Mondays are always our recovery day, but especially for Tyler. We got home late and he finally went to bed at 12:45 a.m. Then at 5:20 he wanted a bottle and then at 9:00 he thought that it was time to get up. Normally it would be, but this morning I did'nt want to. Then he decided that he needed a nap and hour and a half later. Which by now you know I am up, have been up since 9:00 and did not want to be up . Now that he is napping I am up and at it......YEAH!!! It sure is a good thing that Love him....if he only knew!!!

Well I am getting ready to start the laundry from the weekend. I already did one load at 12:30 this morning!!!

Thank you for your prayers and may God bless you all in return for it. As you have read we NEED!! Have a great day it looks like God has given us another good one. Keep smiling, loving, and serving him, what better thing to do???

June 02. 2006

What a great time that we had on vacation! We got to do so much. As you can see on our website pictures we tried to fit in all that we could. My parents met us at Pigeon Forge with Tyler the day before memorial day. They had been keeping him for us while we were in Nashville. They had a good time bonding with him as well.

But.... now that vacation is over we are back to work today. Laundry, packing for the weekend, Thank you letters and CD duplicating for some customers. God is good and gave us a great time. We did not sleep much for trying to do all that we could, but we enjoyed it.

As you will see in the pictures. I got to go to a BOYDS BEAR STORE the biggest teddy bear store in the nation!! I was in heaven!! I have collected BOYDS Bears for years. Resin ones and stuffed as well. I love them. So while Mark found him some music stores, my parents took me to this store. They purchased me a retiring bear. As some of you may know my dad is in the minsitry as well. This was a little bit of a sacrifce for them. However he did think that maybe this would help my future if I ever needed some money.....HA!! HA!! Just kidding

It is good to be home and we will talk to you in the near future!!

God bless,
Andrea
