Renaissace Faire costume..and other stuff.

Wed, 30 Sep 2009 16:13:00 -0500

i know its been ages since i wrote anything. so, i was thinking of putting pictures. :) i'm not much of a sewer, but i attempted to make myself a costume to wear to this october's renaissance faire that i'm playing my violin/fiddle for. i was thinking that a gypsy outfit would do, so a really good freind of mom's blessed me with the finances to buy all that i needed to make it. it came out better than i expected...considering i was the one who made it. hopefully it doesn't fall to pieces while i'm wearing it, that would be bad. :/ anyway, here is the dress.....

so, there ya have it. :D i'mma add a few bracelets and earings, and viola! i'll be all set. i've never played or even been to a renaissance faire before, so it will be a learning expericance. should be lots of fun, that's for sure. i'm really looking forward to it. it's going to be on the 24th of october. so i have been practicing my violin nearly everyday. and if i'm not practicing, i'm normally playing with the groups in the surrounding area. my fovorite place to play is at the autcion that is held every friday night just up the road. it's lots of fun i enjoy playing with other musicians every chance i get.

all this violin playing has also been helping me get all practiced up for a cd that i'm going to be recording this november when i go down to louisiana for thanksgiving. which i'm also very excited about. but i'll write more about that later.

blessings,

then i got in the picture and Heather was gracious enough to take us being goofy. (i'm not really that ticklish, but she was having a blast thinking that i was) *wink*

ok, ok, so i'm a big kid. =P

my sweetie.

Ah, now here i am acting all proper and lady-like again as if i wasn't just rolling around in the grass. ^_^

One thing for sure, this camera takes AWESOME motion pictures.

As you can tell, she was having as much fun as I was....

I "used" to be able to do that... :P

This one's a keeper.

Painfully Saved

Sat, 13 Dec 2008 08:17:00 -0600

Sadness came down
like a thick fog of pain
I fell to my knees
asking God to let this be a dream
When I didn't wake up
my heart fell to the ground
I wanted to scream
but couldn't make a sound
This agony went on forever it seemed
there was nothing of me to do
but run to my saviors wings
He kept me safe
He kept my eyes dry
when I needed Him
He was by my side

~Sarah

I might add more to it later. ^_^

Hey Ya'll...

One of my best friends, Anna came sleep over Sunday night. We played fiddles nearly the whole time....sore fingers for sure! lol

But then Monday, Anna let me borrow her hoop skirt and I tried it on under a skirt that I made..

We all went out to the hay bales for a "authentic" look....

Anna is such a great friend...kind of crazy..but I guess that is why we get along so well...I had such a great time with her...we played practically EVERY song that we knew...From Jingle Bells to Canon...^_^
The End....lol...

Luv always...
