Ok, the other day I was in the local Christian Book store buying a gift for Jillie's baptism which was this past weekend
(yes she had a HUGE weekend); she got an adorable "My Pink Prayer Purse" and a "footsteps" plaque thing from us.

Yummy prayer purse... |
But that's not the point... anyway as I was checking out (
and trying to keep Jillie out of.. well.. EVERYTHING) I looked down and saw a DVD titled
Mandie and the Cherokee Treasure and I got SUPER excited! Well, it took a little while for my brain to get to that point.
First I was like
'Mandie.. hmm... I read Christian books with a Mandie character'.
Then it went to,
'Well, I am in a Christian book store, let me look more closely'.
I reread the title and thought,
''Cherokee... yeah this Mandie had friends who were Cherokee.'
Then finally the light came on, "
Oh my gosh!! They made movies?!!?'
Has anyone else read any of
The Mandie Books? They were like 'the Nancy Drew books for christians'; I'm quoting the checkout lady at the book store there, but that's pretty much what they were... and I LOVED THEM! My Aunt (
married to a preacher) would get me one or two of these for every holiday and birthday.
Yeah, I was excited. I'm totally going to see if the library has these and watch them when hubby has drill or something (
Not gonna lie, he PROBABLY won't want to watch it no matter how good it is).
Anyway, I just wanted to share my excitement... woo hoo!
I grew up on Mandie!:) I used to get a packet of 5 every Christmas if they were out.:) I had no idea they made movies of them. I'm kind of excited too. Lol, I agree though, good luck getting my hubby to watch.:)
ReplyDeleteOh what a joy for her! Even if I had a girl.. I doubt my hubby would watch either! Ha!
ReplyDeleteI think I read every single one of those!!!!
ReplyDeleteWe saw that movie on netflix. I hadn't read any of them as a kid but I am collecting them for my 7 year old daughter to read!
