The Willi Learn to Shoot

I guess now we’re true Tennesseans.   
So yeah, we’re true believers in the second amendment and the “right to bear arms”, but we also understand that with a firearm one has to be extremely careful, safe and responsible. For an introduction to guns, we took a course! A “hunter’s safety course” to be [...]

It Came!

Yes, TheWilli ordered a new digital piano! Sticky keys are not fun to play on, and after getting our current instrument repaired every few months, we knew it was time. Yesterday we watched excitedly as the UPS truck drove up our driveway, carrying our treasure.
“It’s HERE!!”

Oh yeah! Unwrap that bad boy.

Sweet!

The old piano is set [...]

Frozen!

Yeah, we’re currently without water over here! I think most everyone knows that the east coast in general has had a rather severe winter, TN included. But before, whenever we had a cold night we’d leave our water in the faucets and showers dripping so it wouldn’t freeze. Last night the temperatures dropped rapidly and [...]

Ballet Rehearsals!

~Walter, in one of his roles as a Hebrew man

Show time for Exodus: The Story of Moses is this weekend! That means lots of rehearsals for us! Walter’s the only one dancing in the ballet, but Nate and I are in the backstage crew moving props, managing curtains and backdrops, and Angie is kept very [...]

Life is Back to Normal…

…kinda. Although I’m beginning to believe that there’s no such thing as “normal” in our family, as you can see…

Although the busyness of Beauty and the Beast is behind us, we still have a lot going on, and another drama to look forward to in a couple of months! Did anyone [...]

More Beauty and the Beast Photos

Kasie here this time! I figured I’d eliminate any confusion as to who’s writing this post right off the bat. Can you believe it though? Angie posted twice in a row!
Anyway, I was so happy to see these pictures my friend took during the opening night performance – we’ve never been able to [...]

Beauty and the Beast Sneak Peaks

So, opening night for our Beauty and the Beast production is this Friday: a mere four days away! Yikes! A scary but exciting thought. Things are going very well, especially considering that we’ve only had eight weeks to put this whole thing together (and with a cast of 112, too!). Angie and I are having [...]

Pippin

We lost another one of our cats two days ago, our little buddy, Pippin. Nate and I found him lifeless on the grass in our backyard Tuesday morning (he was only a few feet away from where we found Faramir!) – I knew something was up when he didn’t come immediately to eat his breakfast. [...]

Dance Demonstrations

Our newly born 1860’s civilian society had their first dance demonstration last weekend! There’s a 100-year-old farm outside of town apparently filled with Civil War history, and they’re trying to get their name out there. We were asked to be apart of their Fall Festival and give a few dance demonstrations! Various members of our [...]

Just a Couple of Pics

For your information, no, I’m not done recording our family reunion. I still have more pictures! I’m just taking a small break, spending time with family and friends, and working on things that need to be done at home.
In the meantime, however, I wanted to post these two pictures from recent happenings;

~Em, Angie [...]
