Spotsylvania Battle at RichmondMy brothers and sister Judi are Civil War buffs, and so it stands to reason we would be drawn into it from time to time. My sister is a great seamstress and made some really pretty (and authentic) dresses for my grand-daughter Penny, her daughter Mandy and her daughter Mandy, and for herself. Today we dressed up and went to the Tierra Rejada Ranch in Moorpark and watched two battle re-enactments, Spotsylvania and Sayler's Creek. My grandson Daniel and Judi's grandson Aaron really liked it and had to hold their ears for the noise. It's amazing to see such huge crowds that do this. It was a really fun experience.

Dear Auntibeck,
I am a Civil war buff too-have enjoyed many reenactments at Gettysburg as well as close to home. Yes, your pictures are wonderful--the ladies dresses perfectly authentic and well done!
Enjoyed reading about your lovely family also!
My husband is a pastor/teacher also, but had to take a sabbatical due to a serious illness two years ago. He is now doing better and has just recently returned to helping with the teaching and preaching at our church.
Thank you so much for stopping by the Cabin today--your kind comment-much appreciated! So glad to meet you!
Blessings to You from the Cabin,
Claudia O.
