Hello!

Hello!
I got a new layout for the blog! What do you think?
My dad got a kidney stone/kidney stones at 4:00 this morning so today has been a little strange...he was out later tonight though and he seems to be feeling better, so that's definitely a praise. He had them a long time ago and after that, Mom and Dad decided that if it happened again, they would try to wait it out, rather than going to the hospital. It was a test of faith, I think, praying that he would be relieved of the pain, and having faith that God would do it. I will keep you posted on dad.

On a lighter note, we began filming a short film today called "Truth and Falsehood." It's based on a Greek folktale by the same name that I had found a while back in the Book of Virtues by William J. Bennet. I found it when I was looking for possible short film material.
We filmed about the first 1/3, or 1/2 of the movie this afternoon. The next time we shoot we will be shooting the inside part, which will be in the basement. I am really happy about this, because it's the first movie to feature all six of us! Eva and Levi star in the title roles, Shane and I play secondary roles, and Hannah and Brandon have cameos. I came up with a little blooper reel/teaser for it, so here it is. Enjoy!

I got the prayer request about your dad - I'm glad he's feeling better!

I like your new layout, and I LOVE your sneak peek! Are you using a tripod or something? The shots look so much steadier... quite an improvement! :D

Yep, we're using a tripod...you know the sad thing is, we used a tripod on Safari Sam too.:-) But the camera usage wasn't what it could have been, if you know what I mean.:-)

Lol, Caleb, I can't wait to see what the rest of the film is! What's it about, or is it a secret?
Pretty cool you all are in it. I love the music with the feet - very fun. :D

Re your comment, I don't know what accent the attendant had, probably some sort of European...I don't think it was Mideast, but I haven't gotten a good idea yet of what makes the Mideast accents different. They probably stress the syllables they're used to, like long a, or a rolled r, but I'm not sure on that.
