Annaville Baptist

The Spa Girls had a great time with the ladies from Annaville Baptist Church in Annaville, Texas. (It is near Corpus Christi). We spent Friday evening with them and Melissa shared our program on Home Cents. It was perfect timing too as we have all been feeling the financial crunch that has affected our nation as well as our personal lives. So, she did her normal presentation on bringing order back to your home, and then we added a lot of money saving tips that the ladies could actually go home and begin practicing immediately. We really like to give helpful hints in all of our presentations that will motivate our listeners to go home and start making changes now! Our big pointer this night was to encourage each lady to go home and research her current electric company to see if she is getting the best rate. Melissa's dad did the exercise earlier that day and was able to find a company that would save him close to $50 per month. He later went on to apply the technique to his church and found a plan to save the church over $1,000 per month. We are not electric company experts or anything like that, but we do love to hunt and find bargains and this is the big area we are working with right now, even in our own homes. There are many companies that offer electrical services now since that industy has been deregulated. Just be sure to read the fine print before you agree to switch companies. Most have a minimum time period that you must sign up for. Anyway, we would just like to encourage each and every one of our listeners to research and look for more ways to save money. And when you find a good one, send it to us!!

A Few More Pics of Silsbee, TX

I think I might be inclined to cook more at home if my table looked like one of these. Many of the chairs were decorated as well. Most of my pictures turned out too blurry to post. I will work on that for the next event.

First Assembly of God Church, Silsbee, TX

We had a wonderful time with the ladies at the Silsbee, Tx First Assembly of God. There were more than 100 ladies in attendance. Other Assembly of God churches from Silsbee and the surrounding towns were also in attendance. Each table was beautifully decorated and the food was delicious! Melissa and I got to share Spa Cents and then a fun spa party followed. We enjoyed sitting with Sister Gwen and meeting some of her family members. It was a great day and really got us in the mood to celebrate spring and the upcoming Mother's Day. We hope we get invited back there very soon!

The Best Quiet Time Ever

Here's Melissa having her quiet time on the beach at Gulf Shores, AL. She was also soaking up the sun as well as the SON! Melissa, that had better be the Bible you are reading!! God really blessed us with beautiful weather and accommodations this week. We were revived and refreshed and are looking forward to our summer events!

Gulf Shores, AL - a Little R & R

Do these pants make me look tall?? We had a great time on the beach at Dee Dee and Chris's condo. We would not have ever left except we had another great opportunity in Birmingham, AL to speak at the Lifeline Children's Services fundraiser banquet.

We got to meet even more new friends and of course we enjoyed seeing Herbie again from the Girl's Get-a-way Cruise last February! It was a great night and we heard some wonderful testimonies about the great things that Lifeline is doing. Thank you Andi for inviting us!

Nautical Missions?

We are off to Birmingham, AL to speak at the Lifeline Adoption Services fundraiser! We are so excited that we get to go up a few days early to the beach side of Alabama and enjoy some sun and fun.

We would like to apologize to our current blog followers and add a warning to this blog. We almost always take at least one wrong turn on our travels and our last blog is no exception. We lost our password and even though Melissa was a follower, we could not find a way to get back in to make updates, therefore we have started over.

We will be sure to post some pictures of the trip in a couple of days. Until then we have written down all our blog passwords and now we just have to find that paper and put it in a safe place!
