I know I go a week and do not blog then I do 2 or 3 blogs in one week!! That is why that you should visit my blog ALL the time. You just never know what you are going to read about me.
So Tyler and I ran out to get a few things at the grocery and got a fun surprise. I had gotten a letter in the mail from Kroger earlier last week about a scavenger hunt inside the store to play games and win prizes. It was to run from 3 to 5 p.m. The fun surprise to us both was I had forgotten all about it, Tyler did not know anything about it so I was still the hero that we were getting to do such a thing!! Well, we got there at 3:45 p.m. just in time to play the games and win some prizes!! FREE prizes that was!! Tyler won a sand bucket and shovel, a soft freebie, 2 water balls, got a pumpkin painted on his face, a pumpkin balloon and decorated a cookie that he got to take home and eat!!! I had a good time with him watching him enjoy himself!!!
We sing tomorrow for a revival. Mark is emceeing a Greater Vision, Legacy Five concert that his brothers are a part of Saturday and we sing again on Sunday. So pray for us as we get through another weekend.
We have both been at work in the office and studio today. I got all of the Flyer's off for our meetings in November and did 90 Cd's today for someone else and for ourselves as well.
Mark starts a recording session with a group tonight in about 30 minutes. He is still out running errands so it looks like I will be the greeter for them until he returns.
Thanks for your support and for reading my blog. Had to share my fun time with Tyler and our FREE adventure!!!
God Bless,

NOT Ready!!
The weather has been absolutely crazy today. I mean I know that the Lord had it all planned out to what He wanted it to do today, but I still say that it was a little strange! Rain, sleet, sun rain some more cold!!!! I am NOT ready for the cold weather yet. But unfortunately I cannot stop it so I guess that I will bundle up and endure, I mean enjoy the weather.
Today I did 250 Cd's and stuffed 200 hundred more for another project in the making. Then Tyler and I headed out to run our " Monday errands". I took Tyler to the library and checked out some cartoons and I checked me out a movie too. That is what he and I are doing now. He is watching his movies in his room and I am watching mine. I re-joined the library in our district because on Saturday if you get to the library early you can get FREE tickets to ride a train at Huckleberry Railroad and FREE hot dog lunch on the 15Th of November!!! For those of you that know me I am always looking for bargains and fun things to do!! So Tyler and I are going to do this, Lord willing and there are tickets left when I get there. They are also having carousel rides and a few other things for a $1.00 a ride so for about 5 to 10 dollars Tyler and I are going on an adventure!!
Mark is going on another hunting trip with his brothers and friends the week of the 15Th so this will give Tyler and I another cheap adventure to do together.
We did other errands today to. We took Mark's suits, groceries, Post office run and a few other things. We are now slowing it down for the day and relaxing.
We had a great weekend of meetings. We sang at Beaverton Baptist Saturday night. We did a radio program Saturday morning that turned out quite interesting. We had a good time doing it with the Pastor from the church.
Sunday morning went really well. It was a new church in Whitemore, MI. We had a great time of fellowship with all the attended.
Mark is coming home tomorrow around 4:00 but he has to go and work at the studio in Lansing as soon as he gets home. So we will not really see him until late tomorrow.
Gonna run for now. I am watching my movie and writing at the same time. I have had a long day and I am ready to relax a little bit.
As I always let you know thank you for your prayers and support to us it means so much to us. We could NOT go on without your prayers. We NEED them. THANK YOU!! God bless, go out and do something for the Lord this week and let's make HIM proud!!!

Whirlwind Day!!
What a day! We started off in New Port Richy this morning at 8:30 a.m. Then we headed to the airport. By 2:30 p.m. we were in our driveway unloading our bags!! This was Tyler's first adventure on a plane. What a fun time we had with him. I took lots of pictures for the memories book and saved his flight ticket. We got settled on the plane and Tyler said," Blast off!!" Of course we had to laugh. He loved the take off and the landing. Those are my two favorite parts too! The people on the plane were amazed at how good he was. I looked at Mark and said," It is just another vehicle to ride in to him!" He had his DVD player and cookies so he was all set!!
We landed and Mark's mom was there to pick us up. Tyler was very eager to tell her all about the plane ride. We headed for home where all the work began.
We hit the ground running. I got all of the luggage unloaded, all the laundry caught up, done ,folded and put away. Re-packed for the weekend. Then I headed downstairs to do Cd's for us. I did 210 Cd's for us for the weekend. Mark helped me with some work that I have to do next week. This helped give me a jump start on my work!! Thanks baby ( Mark to you guys!)!!!
It was then bath time for Tyler. We got this done and then I got supper together and fed the family. WHHEEWW!!!! Now, I am tired!!!!
It is now 11:40 p.m. and I am well done!!! We are getting ready to head to bed and hit the ground running again this weekend. We are leaving at 10:00 a.m. so that I can get Mark some food for his hunting trip with his brother this week. We are singing Sunday and then I am taking Mark over to the trailer where he stays at when he hunts up north. His brother is then going to meet him there Sunday night and they are going to hunt Monday and Tuesday. Then Mark and his brother will return home to Tyler and I Tuesday afternoon.
In the meantime Monday and Tuesday I will be doing 300 Cd's for orders that have been placed over the weekend. So if I do not update for a few days it is because I am busy..............AGAIN!!!
Please pray for us as we travel this weekend and that we will be a blessing to all those that attend our meetings. We want to be a blessing and encouragement. Thank you for your prayers and support to us and the ministry.
Until next time may the Lord bless you all. Keep on serving Him!!!
In Christ,
Andrea

Back To myself!!!
For those of you that read the website last week you know that I have been sick. Sorry about the delay on updating my blog, but lots of things have been going on. Doctor appointments, traveling, laundry and re-packing. Thank you for your prayers. I am doing MUCH better than last week for sure.
Today is take suits to the cleaners, groceries and I have given the old van a GOOD wipe down so that we can travel in it clean and ready to leave for Florida. I am also doing Cd's today and packing for the trip tomorrow. Never a dull moment around here.
We had a great trip to Illinois. The church was so generous to us and took very good care of us. They put us up in a motel that had an indoor pool so Tyler was in HEAVEN!! I knew this ahead of time so I had packed all of our swimming clothes. Saturday was our last day to enjoy it so we not only took him swimming once. But I took him back in later on that day!! He is SO much fun!!
Pray for us please as we are getting ready for this trip to Florida. Pray that the van will make it safe and sound and that the Lord will protect us all the way as we know He can and trust that He will!!!!!
Thank you again for the support that he show to us. May the Lord bless you greatly in return. Take care, until next time..........SERVE THE LORD WITH GLADNESS!!!

Safe and Sound!!!
Last night Mark and the guys came home safe!!! PTL!!! I am glad that Mark gets to go on his trips and believe me I have fun and relax but I miss him and am always glad to have him back home with Tyler and I.
Jason( one of his friends) got a deer literally 10 minutes after getting in his tree Wednesday night when they got there!!!! They all could NOT believe it. The rest of them only saw about 5 more deer the rest of the time, but could get no shots. Better luck to them next time. I think Mark and his brother are going to try and fit in another trip up there in a few weeks. We are singing a lot the next few weeks so they have to wait.
Speaking of singing. We sing Wednesday and then head to Illinois for a meeting that starts there Friday-Sunday. Then we will come home Monday, pack again and head to Florida on Wednesday. We start a meeting there 2 weeks from today. So between CD jobs and packing, traveling and unpacking we will be VERY busy the next couple of weeks. But, as you know this is our life!!!
Please keep us in your prayers for safety as we travel and to be a blessing to those that attend our meetings. We want to see souls saved and lives changed for the Lord!!
Thank you for your support to our ministry. We appreciate your prayers. God bless.

AND THEIR OFF!!!
Today was the day that the guys left to go be " guys"!! They left around 12:30 today hoping to get there in time to hang themselves in a tree before it got dark. I can truly say I just do NOT get it. It is cold, supposed to rain a little while they are gone and there have been signs of bears...........yes that's right BEAR around where all of their tree stands are..........NO THANKS!!! Give me my warm house, pj's, hot cocoa, and the option to leave and go shopping whenever I want!!!!
So that is just what Tyler and I did today. They were not gone 20 minutes and we headed out on the town. First we went to McDonald's and got him some nuggets and fries. We then went to Mejiers and I rented Tyler one of the car karts with the cartoons that play in them while I shopped. Tyler found him a "Lightning McQueen hat" this was his treat for the day. We stayed for about an hour. We then left and I asked Tyler if he was ready to go and he said," no, let's go to goodwill!!" That's my boy!! We did find Mark 2 really nice casual shirts. After this I headed to a place where I like to get green tea, wild berry smoothies!!MMMMMMMM!! Very good!!!
So the fun ( in 2 different worlds) have begun for Mark and I. He is doing what he loves to do and Tyler and I are doing what we like to do.
Tomorrow my mother-in-law and I are going down towards Detroit to a factory outlet store of anything and everything you want is there. They have been telling me I should go so she is going to take me and we are going to shop together for the day. Then we are going over to my sister-in-laws house and see the kids and eat lunch/supper with them. So today is planned out for Tyler and I. Friday is optional, but I am thinking up something!!!1
This is a much needed time for Mark and I to just let down for a few days. Keep us in your prayers for our meetings this weekend. We have 2 different ones. Pray that we will be a blessing to all that attend. Have a great weekend and I will write more next week!! Thanks for your interest and God bless!
