GOD IS GOOD! He provides for us and sometimes things that give us a break from everyday life and provide some refreshment. This weekend was one of those times. Not only did we get to enjoy living history we got to enjoy the mountains and grass :-)
Our son Jus loves re-enacting and bringing living history to people. About a year ago God brought this dream to pass for him. A living history group was given a large donation that allowed them to purchase uniforms to outfit people interested in participating but could not afford to purchase everything on their own. This would be us :-) It can get quite costly but our God has provided.
This weekend we were able to participate again with the WeMakeHistory group in the town of Payson, AZ. It was great fun and the men/boys of my family absolutely love the opportunity. The residents of Payson were so grateful. What a wonderful town. There were many older citizens there that were so full of questions and were taking pictures and telling their stories of their families. It was quite amazing.
Jon loves playing while we are there and Jac got to carry a musket ( there is a proper name but I'm not sure what it is ) for the first time and this is a big thrill in the life of these boys. They anxiously await the time that they are old enough to participate in this way. It was also very interesting to mingle through the crowd and hear the comments. It allows them to ask many questions.
All in all it was a good day and we give all the Glory to God. We didn't think we were going to be able to participate this time but God once again provided above and beyond our expectations! I have posted a few pictures....I do not have many because we are not allowed to break character and use something from the "modern times" while in costume. So I quickly snapped some at the end of the day before everyone cleaned up.
