Seeing that a Pilot steers the ship in which we sail, who will never allow us to perish even in the midst of shipwrecks, there is no reason why our minds should be overwhelmed with fear and overcome with weariness.

In case anyone is wondering how my costume is coming along for the Reformation 500, here are some chosen pictures of the process....
Closeup of my vest...
Here are my grommets waiting to be spray painted...
Here they were with a primer and a finish coat. I decided the color was not the best... too Milk Chocolaty. I made them darker as you will see on the end result...
My Costume also has peplums. Ten to be exact. My poor mom had to make ten of them! What a saint!
I rebound my sword hilt in leather..
And last of all, a Picture of my knee Boots.....
So, maybe this post seems a little incomplete to you?
Last Saturday our family went to the Circle Christian School homeschool curriculum book sale in Orlando. We all got up at 4:20 in the morning to get there by 6:00. I don't think the coffee helped much, because I was pretty out of it until the sale was over and we ate lunch. Thinking back, the only thing I remember is a ride in the dark, standing in line (because the sale opened at 7:00) and lots and lots and lots of books everywhere! As I think all of you know, we have a business selling new and used homeschool curriculum. Below are some pictures from our foyer and living room after we got home that night....
This was most of the books, about 1/4 had already been put away.
Art....
Here is another angle showing a little bit more of the room and books.....
I could not resist taking a picture of this picture in our foyer, it makes me laugh every time I really look at it...
All the rubber bands, string, and thread that were holding sets together...
Extra Long Fancy- I could not resist.
We are still putting the books away, and by tomorrow, Mom should have them nicely organized. :D
Well this was the big day when I left (by myself) on a Wild Adventure...... Actually I went to work a whole 3 miles away! HA!
I passed the test on my first try- no problem! Here are some pictures Lauren took when I first put my license to use!
Dad :D
Sweet Tea...
Just being cool
Going, Going
Gone
Lauren took this nice picture our color coordinating parents
That was a pretty big day for me! It was getting difficult to run my business with out being able to drive. But, thanks to Dad and Gabe I did it for two years. Thank you!
Well another Barberville has come and gone. I hope no one was expecting lots of great pictures from me because, as you all know, I'm usually having too much fun to remember to take pictures. :D
Just after we arrived, Lauren and Anna...
and Lauren and Jean Marie
The Fiddling Krickets getting ready to preform....

And no one's blog post on B-ville is complete without pics of the Stone Family Band!
They had a nice crowd.
You guys did great!
Men of the House, and Matthew Morse on the banjo.
Skill.
and there goes a string....
And finally, I only have one video for you.....
I don't like all of the content of their music, but these four waltzes were nicely done. :)
Well thats it for my post! I hope no one was too disappointed since it didn't quite live up to all the hype. I had a very nice time talking, jamming, and dancing with you all.
