The Time Has Come!!!

The CD room is officially shut down!!!! Mark has gone hunting and will be back Wednesday or Thursday. Mark's dad and younger brothers decided not to go until tomorrow. But his older brother is going up with him tonight. He has looked SO forward to this all year. I am so glad that he is taking a little quiet time for himself. He left me with some SHOPPING MONEY!!! And Tyler and I eating out money for a few days so that I can just relax and enjoy myself as well.

I am looking forward to having a few days to not feel the pressure of having to get things done. But when Friday comes I have to do 300 CD'S and pack!! We leave Friday evening to head up north to sing for the weekend!! We are taking the motor home so this requires a little more packing than normal. But until then I am doing NOTHING that does NOT absolutely have to be done!!

Thank you for checking the website. If you are a first time visitor please check back with us on the 5Th. We will update you then. We try to update 2 to 3 times a week. However NOT this week.

Hope that all of you have a great week. Pray that we will be refreshed so that we can continue to do what the Lord has called us to do!! Thank you!!!

God Bless,
Andrea

Just a few more days!!!

Until a lot of things will happen. The weather is so beautiful today but, winter is coming. Although all seasons are beautiful because..........................they are created by God!

I will be taking a few days off here soon which will be nice. And so will Mark. I am working today in the office to get work done ahead so that our days relaxing will feel better knowing that the work that needs to be done, is done.

Also it won't be too long until we will be leaving for our Fall trip to Florida.............AAAAHHHH!

Mark is at work right now as I speak with the man recording sermon Cd's. We are all doing something all the time it seems. As a matter of fact Tyler is vacuuming right now!! Train them early, in the way that they should go!! HEE HEE!!

Thank you for your prayers and support. We appreciate all that you do!!!

Until we meet again,
Andrea

Just like I said!!

Tyler was truly a ham Sunday night in the baby parade at church. I think he had more fun than anyone!! He did great. He did not like the headphones on, nor to carry his guitar. But when it was time to go down the aisle and back out of the church he did not mind wearing the headphones and playing his guitar.

He is such a funny kid. I guess because he sees me put things away and how I like to keep things neat and clean. When he got home he said " mommy back". Then went into his room, opened his closet and put his guitar back right where we keep it in there!!

Today is CD day.I have lots to do an no strength to do it with!! I had a sugar attack last night and these episodes seem to drain me the next day more than anything. The Lord will give me the strength to do the work that I need to do I know. He always does!!

We had a great weekend with our meetings. The Lord provided for our needs as He always does. Thank you for your prayers and support to the ministry. You are thought of everyday. As we do what we do for the Lord. Your prayers get us through.

Until we meet again. Thanks and may the Lord bless you all in your hard work for our Lord.

FINALLY!!!!

So sorry that I have not updated my blog in a while. WE have been so busy. I can't seem to find time for it all lately.

Our homecoming was a great one again this year. I feel the Lord blessed many hearts through the songs and testimony of each group. As we had several folks share what a blessing it was and an encouragement to their lives. This is what we prayed for and this is what the Lord gave!!! AMEN!! The Lord was good in giving us a good crowd ( all to see us you know!!) Well, o.k. 2 or 3 to see us and the rest the Booth Brothers. Speaking of which they just one group of the year at the singing news awards Thursday! We are so proud that we could help them get there!! HAHA!! They are great guys and all of you should come next year. It is a wonderful event!!

I am back at work in the CD room. However I have all of our clothes at the door to load on the motor home when Mark arrives with it. We are leaving for the weekend to sing at 2 churches up north here in Michigan.

Then we are going to be at our home church Sunday night!! YEAH!! PLUS, Tyler gets to be in our Baby Parade. This is where they pray for their little lives to be full for the Lord, we get to show off our babies and then they get to play games and have pizza!!! You can make them a float to come in on as well. I cleaned up his car and made to signs for the front and the back that read" Forester Family Bus" with a bus drawn on it and music notes. He is going to carry his guitar and hold a microphone as we wheel him in!!! He will be a ham I am SURE!!!

Thank you for your prayers and kind notes that you send our way. May the Lord bless you all in return for your gifts. Have a good day and remember to.............Keep on keeping on!!!

God bless,
Andrea

Almost there!

I cannot believe that we are almost to our Homecoming!!! We talk about this all year and here it is again right upon us!! We are SO excited about it. If you do not have tickets. We still have a few left, but you will have to get them at the door. We hope that you will keep us in your prayers this night. We are recording it. As always we want to do a good job for our Lord. But when you are recording LIVE you have to be on top of things. PLEASE pray!!

I am sitting at our dining table enjoying my coffee and banana for breakfast. While looking out my new sliding kitchen door. Enjoying the beautiful day that the Lord has made.......once again!!! We serve a mighty and awesome God!!

Today is a combination day again. Mark is finally going to get his eyes tested. He wore glasses about 4 years ago. Left them at a church and NEVER replaced them. Not because he did not need them. Just because we always seem to need the money that week for something else.

I am also doing some last minute shopping for my parents. They will be here tomorrow so I need a few groceries. They will be here for our homecoming. I am so happy that they will be able to attend this year. I hear that you will not miss him. He was describing his new suite to me and WOW!!! Just a hint. The color is Peacock Blue!!! He is a character. But we sure do love him! Mom is patient and goes with whatever! They have been married for 43 years so I guess that their loving ways work!!

Thank you for your prayers. May the Lord bless you today and we will let you in on how our Homecoming went. See you later!!

God Bless,
Andrea
