Five days with the Ives......



Allen Ives called us and said that he was near Detroit and wondered if they could come and visit for a few days. They ended up playing at our church during the revival services we were having.

Sorry about the lighting....the pictures were the best we could get from the sound booth


Allen going solo..


Allen and Ellen duet with our musically challenged pastor on the harp.












Wade and Allen did two duets....one with trumpets...the other a trumpet and piano.


Ellen with her harp.


It WAS Easter time.....:)




After church we had a jam session.


What great friends....
We are hoping more of their family can join them when they visit next year.....hint hint

The Ives...that must have been fun.
I love to watch them sing together, as she smiles and looks at him while they are singing.
They are such happy people. We have Allen's music video, on the right types of music and it's been a good 'tool' for us. They are just great folks. Glad you got some fellowship time in with them.
Looks like everyone enjoyed it.

We met the Ives a few years ago at a conference and loved their music! How fun to be able to spend several days with them!

I believe they will be at the Wesco's church sometime in the near future. Would there be anyone out there that can confirm a date?

Thanks,
Jim
