Thanks for the Evening

Saturday night was stuffed full of commitments for us. We didn't quite make them all, but we did make a few and we are certainly thankful for Jerry and Wanda making it possible for us to go to the Trace Adkins concert. It took Austin to fill us in on who these guys were before we went. He said that Trace Adkins "looked old", but he did sing "Honky Tonk Ba-Donky Donk???"
He sure would of liked to see Craig Morgan sing "International Harvester" At least after talking with him, we knew some of the popular songs. We were pleasantly surprised by the whole concert. I think even more so by the opening act Craig Morgan. He was absolutely wonderful. I can't help but leave a link here because I want you to hear one of the songs that really makes you think. He could have just as easily been playing in a Christian concert. I think he referenced his Maker in about 80-90% of everything he sang. He really sang from his heart and his passion was obvious. Very enjoyable from our floor seats! Trace Adkins presents a totally different style. Very entertaining and enjoyable as well. Only problem there was everyone thought they needed to enjoy him while standing up! Didn't bother us any to sit right in the middle of them! Hope you enjoy the new song as much as we did.

Once again, we are so lucky to benefit from all the wonderful people we have in our lives. Just like he says, "God must Really Love Me (us)"

Mark is doing well. Just like the energizer bunny. He has ups and downs energy wise, but overall is doing well. 1 down WooooHooooo. He sees Dr. Crim tomorrow for another follow up with him and his nurse specialist. I think we are finally getting a handle on all of the stomach issues. Praise God. We will see tomorrow.

Love you all, Missy

I'm so glad you guys not only got to Go to the comcert, but that you enjoyed it too. You were the first ones mom and I both thought of when we knew we needed to give the tickets away. God takes care of us in so many ways and He allows people different ways of showing their love.
We love you guys and hope to see you soon!
