Singing: last weekend & this weekend

We have been very busy the last few days (then again, are we ever not busy?). We had an excellent weekend with two great meetings. Last Saturday we sang at Chapel In The Pines Music Barn. We had both sets of services that they do, and both went pretty well. We did our kid show material in the first half, and a gospel music concert in the second half. Our Dad went along with us to help with driving and set up/tear down work so that we could get things done quickly and head back home that night. We were originally going to stay over night to sing for our Sunday night meeting booked nearby, but we wound up going home so that, in between Saturday night and Sunday night, we could help Mom with her crazy special Sunday that she was doing in jr. church back home at Dixie Baptist (see Josh's last blog below this one for more info there!).
We are both trying desperately to stuff, stamp, and address as many demos to Florida as we possibly can. We've only got five months 'till we want to be singing in Florida, and I want to get as many demos down there as I can before we go back to college next week.
Speaking of that, next week Josh and I will be going to our college president's house for a special Labor Day picnic that he's hosting to welcome new and returning students for this year's class. We're both eagerly looking foreword to it so we can check out the new girls coming to school this fall! (Just kidding.......sort of!...)
This weekend will be a truly nutty one. We are singing for the annual Brown City Missionary Camp gospel festival featuring some truly amazing talent. We are singing at 12:30pm, hanging around for about 30-45 minutes, then packing up and racing to the opposite side of the state to sing with Mark and Andrea Forester for an evening concert in Howard City, Mi. We're hoping to find a place to stay the night over there, 'cause the next morning we are singing for the Schnabel Lake Campground (no, I did not make that name up!). We are singing and speaking for their morning service. Whew! I'm tired already!
