I got it all my work done today. I did not think that I would, but the Lord was good and I am getting ready to go sit on my couch. It is 10:00 p.m. and I think that it is about time.
I had to do about 300 Cd's, pack, do all of my laundry from the weekend. Tyler needed to go get his hair cut. I had to go get my hair cut. Get some things at Walmart, and pick up some medicine for us.
So we are going to head out in the Morning for my parents house for a few days and then head back to Ohio for our meetings this weekend. We are only about 3 hours from my parents when we do these meetings in Ohio. So it is worth the drive. We have not seen them since the first of April when we were on our way back from Florida.
Tyler is ready to see his Paw-Paw and Meme. And their stuffed dogs roofus and patch. Whom he thinks is as real as it gets!! He loves those dogs. Their both really good sizes and I think this is why he likes them. We are also going to visit with some other family too. And go to one of my nephews tee-ball games!
Thank you for all of your prayers for us as we travel. We had great meetings this past week. Hope that you can come see us sometime if you are in the area. We would love to see you! Take care and we will talk to you all soon. God bless and keep on serving HIM!! He is WORTHY!!!

Thank you!!!
This weekend is a very busy weekend for most people. Cookouts, riding their bikes, doing yard work etc. However, this is a weekend when we mostly should just be saying, " THANK YOU" to all those that have served and are currently serving to help make our country great.
I know that I would like to personally my dad for serving our country in Vietnam for 4 years and has been VERY active serving at my home state's capitol of Kentucky and in Washington D.C. He has fought for all kinds of rights for our christian families. Homeschooling issues, pastoral issues and many more. But, mostly on this very memorable weekend for fighting for my country so that I can sit in peace as we speak in my nice home writing to you with NO worries.
So today and the rest of this weekend I send a THANK YOU to all those that have served, serving or have someone close to you that is currently serving.
DAD, a BIG THANK YOU to you for all that you have done for this country and for me and my family. We love you and will always be indebted to you and VERY grateful for all that you have done. Now, please go have a steak and celebrate!!!!
We are spending Monday with some friends of ours and doing the grilling out thing too! Hope that you all have a great weekend and may we NEVER forget what we are privileged with!
God Bless America,
Andrea

Crafty
That was what kind of mood that I was in today. My mom and dad got me a candle maker for Christmas about 3 years ago and to be honest I never have used it. Today however I thought to myself, " I would like to make some candles today!" I know just what all of you sit around thinking about right? Well, that is how my mind works. To each his own I guess.
So I did. I used the melting wax that came with the kit and the color was LIME green. Does not really go with my decor in the house but I can say that " I made it!"
I had fun and will try use it more often. Just in case that you are reading this mom and dad " thank you."
Tyler has been feeling the blues the last 2 days. He has been taking 4 hour naps and sneezing like crazy. He asked to put his jammies on at 3:00 this afternoon. He was feeling really bad, plus LOVES his jammies.
We are trying to catch up on our sleep, but we are still not there. Mark worked on some things in the office until 2:30 this morning and Tyler had a bad night and got up 2 times last night. And the night before that as well. So between work and Tyler not sleeping we are both still trying to catch up.
Plans for tomorrow is to mow the yard, little things around the house and whatever else I can get into. Mark has to go finish a job at the studio in Lansing. So Tyler and I might just have to find a small inexpensive adventure to do. If he feels up to it. If not staying home in our jammies sounds GREAT to me. Pray the he will get better and we will not start a cycle of sickness again between us all.
Thank you for your prayers and your interest in our ministry. We appreciate you ALL!!

Who am I ???
That is what I have felt like for 2 days now!! We had a really good weekend and good meetings. The concert with Greater Vision was great. If you did not come you probably wished that you did right?? The spirit was great and what a joy and honor to sing with those great men once again.
We are SO tired from the rushed weekend. Yesterday was declared get up when we want, eat what we want, sleep when we want and do nothing if we do not want day!!! And that is just what we did. When Tyler went down for his nap Mark and I managed to slip in one as well. Not a real long one, but more than we usually get.
We still managed to throw in a little bit of work. I did a few loads of laundry( never goes away you know!) cleaned a few toilets and cleaned out to closet drawers. Mark had to go shop for us a new wireless router. Minutes after I explained how WONDERFUL it was to have our wireless up and running...........it quit!! HA!! That is life. So he went shopping for that last night. Before he left Tyler was still sleeping and I was on the couch in my PJ'S. When he got home and came around the corner I was still on the couch in my same comfy spot. He just laughed and said,"good for you." He knows that I cannot stay still for nothing. So I must be really tired or sick if I am lazy enough to stay on the couch for 2 hours by myself.
Thank you for your prayers. We are back to work today on some things in the office, groceries, and CD jobs. We hope that you can come see us sing sometime. keep us in your prayers as we travel for safety and that souls will be saved and lives will be uplifted in the name of the Lord.
Talk to you soon and we will let you know real soon what is going on with the Forester family.

Wireless
I am so thankful to have our wireless fixed in our house again. We had it installed when we first moved in and about 1 month after we got it working it quit and we have not had it ever since. It is so nice to be able to update my blog and surf the web without leaving my couch when I get a chance to sit down!! Isn't it funny how times change with modern day amenities. What would we do without wireless??
SSHH...... All is quiet in the Forester house right now. I just finished my CD jobs and had my supper. Tyler is sleeping and Mark is gone working at the studio in Lansing again. I am enjoying sitting for a few more minutes before Tyler wakes up and watching one of my favorite shows , " What not to wear" on the TLC channel and HG TV. This is my down time TV shows, LOVE EM.
We have a BIG weekend coming up. We sing with Greater Vision Saturday, sing up north Sunday morning and then we have a special event for Sunday night. Sunday afternoon we are going over to where the Booth Brothers are singing and see them for a while, and also so that Tyler can see them. He is in LOVE with them still. We just got him another VCR/TV combo. Well, Marks mom found one at a garage sell for $3.00!!! The only video that he has of the Booth Brothers is on VHS so he has not watched it for about 5 months. So his new treat has been to watch the Booth Brothers in his room again. He has averaged watching it about 3 times a day in between playing with all of his toys, ( rough life).
I will talk to you all soon. I am going to go and enjoy my free time for a few more minutes before I need to get Tyler up. He has been sleeping for about 2 and half hours which worked out good for me so that I could work downstairs, but now I want to enjoy a little quiet time .
Thank you for stopping by and seeing what I had to say for today. Take care of yourselves and keep on keeping on for the Lord! It is the least that we can do. He is WELL worth it!:)

Is it really May???
O.K. is it really May out there??? Just wondering since I had to run errands today with 3 layers on!!! I cannot believe that I still am running my heat , especially at night and it is still May. I guess it does not matter how long that we stay in Florida we still are bound to have to endure a little bit of COOL weather!!
Mark is working at a studio again. Bless his heart, he wears so many hats and does so many things that most of you out there never see nor could you ever imagine how full his days really are. When we play, we play, but when we work, we definitely work!I appreciate him SO much.
Tyler and I did our running around together today. I did not have much office work to do nor house work so I decided that it was a Tyler play day. He had such a CRAZY weekend right along with us that I thought that he deserved a little bit of fun. So I got him bundled up and we went to the playground around the corner from our house. Then we went to Little Ceasers and got him a slice of pizza! Then I went to the mall for a while and just did some window shopping. Well, sort of . I went to the mall and spent a whole.........$4.00!!! I got a casual fun ring, 2 bracelet's and 1 pair of earrings. Claire's was having a BIG sale and when I see sale I am there!!
Then we headed to our spot......Walmart. I had to get a few groceries and Tyler needed some new black dress shoes. I found him a pair, on sale for $5.00!!! I guess that it was meant to be for him. We also got some " BIG boy " underwear in hopes to start the attempt in the morning!!! He picked them out. He got " Batman" underwear!!
Thank you for stopping by and seeing what we are up to. We are VERY tired today with the schedule that we had over the weekend. Tomorrow I have about 150 Cd's to do. Plus Wednesday I have to do 200 for another group. I am know that I will get them done tomorrow, but it might take me a while. I mean it, we all are running really slow and are VERY tired!! God was good to us and gave us great meetings and good traveling mercies. We are thankful for all of the dates that the Lord sends our way.
Thanks for your prayers and we will talk to you soon. Check back with me soon and see what we are all up to.
Keep on serving our Lord it is the best thing EVER!!!

Happy May!
I cannot believe that it is May already. Time just flies anymore the way we stay so busy. And I know that all of you feel the same.
Tyler and I did come up with something to do the other day when Mark was gone. We went out to our place that has the indoor pool and jacuzzi. We had a great time together splashing each other as much as possible. However the membership ran out so we will have to come up with something different next time. We then went to the gas station where I let him pick out any snack that he wanted. He looked and looked, and out of all the things in the store. He picked out ( Doughnuts) or as he says " Dough- dough's". He has dough-dough's almost every morning for breakfast and out of all the things that he could have had he picked those. Oh, well that was his choice and he ate 3 out of 6 of them. Not to bad for a little belly. Plus he wanted his " own" Sprite. And of course I had to get me a treat too. So I got a fat-free Cappuccino and a power bar. Sound yummy? Yeah, probably NOT to you!!
We had great meetings this past weekend. The Lord was good to us keeping us safe and enjoying each other in the car to and from our travels. PLEASE pray for us this week as we will be VERY busy. We sing Thurs-Sunday all DIFFERENT places all over the state. By Sunday night we will want to fall on our knees into bed! Thank you for your prayers and support they mean the world to us all.
Tyler is watching Mickey Mouse Clubhouse right now and it is time for me to go write out bills and get ready to go run errands. It is Monday and that is what our Mondays are here when we are at home.
Tyler will be going with me to do my errands so stay tuned with us to see if he did anything funny( I am sure that he will) or see if we had an adventure together again today or real soon!! God bless!!
