These four ladies have nothing to fear on Judgement Day. Left to right, The Rebellious Pastor's Wife, Boots on the Ground, yours truly, and A Round Unvarnish'd Tale. I look like I'm sitting ON my friends, don't I? I'm not, and my friend Lora does not have a mosaic of Christ In Judgement on her living room wall, although that would be pretty cool. This mosaic is one of my very favorite depictions of Christ, and it hangs in the entrance to one of the buildings on the campus of Concordia Theological Seminary, in Fort Wayne, IN. I sure had a great time visiting the campus and hanging out with these ladies (and several more who joined us Saturday evening!) We ate too much food, had just the right amount of wine, and raided a bookstore, too. Not neccessarily in that order.
The three of us who traveled to the event had a chance to meet up with Big Doofus and Miss Sniz. Good people, them. We all had alot in common since we're brothers and sisters in Christ first, and homeschooling, family-loving moms and dads second. The internet is a wonderful thing, I tell ya. Thanks, Mr. Gore!
Oh, wow, you really did it. (I thought you were joking! I should have known better.)

Jenny - was that your first visit to CTSFW? Did you get to take in some chapel services?

Okay, now that is just disorienting....My couch is sitting in Loehe Hall. Who needs mind altering drugs when you have Photo Shop (and the like)?

Polly, we didn't catch any chapel services. I've been to the sem a few times, all with my Dh to do work on the organ. It was the first time for Melody and Cheryl.
The bookstore wasn't open! Waaaa, waaaa!

RPW, you *know* that's such a sinful, lust-inducing movie. Shame on you.

I see our Lord's sword of judgement is positioned properly...

"just the right amount of wine".... hee hee!

Frank, I didn't even notice that! You're awful!

I'm REALLY tempted to make some Photoshop adjustments to this photo based on Frank's comment.
We had a great time meeting you all. Be sure to let us know if you're coming through town again. I had my camera with me to take a picture and I totally forgot to do it!!!!

I hear Cleveland is lovely, especially *this* time of year. Who am I kidding, Ft. Wayne is in between us and so would be ever so much more practical. Especially since my pastor's family has in-laws there. Maybe I could hitch a ride sometime. :)

How fun!!! The sword of judgment...too funny!

Great picture! I like having a face to put with the blog. And oblivious me, I really thought you guys were in front of the mosaic before I read all the way through. In my defense, I have been on some good meds. :)

Why does he look like he's holding the Holy Hand Grenade of Antioch?
