A Movie From the Hastings Five

Wow, today has been BUSY. My family and I filmed a movie today at the library for a film contest sponsored by the library system of Minnesota. We had been planning the movie for over a month and now the whole filming in the library part is done! Now the hard part: Editing.
Thankfully all I am is the costume designer for the movie so I don't have to worry about editing. This was my first official job as costume designer for a "movie", and I got to design a cowgirl, a space lady, a detective, and a scientist. Here are the actors wearing the costumes along with the cast and crew.

I am the cow girl in this picture and my mom is the space person. My dad has the camera on the tripod and my sister is the scientist. My friend Mia is standing next to me and her mom is the detective. My brother is standing in between my sister and my mom, and last but not least, my friend Mrs. Waltho is holding the yellow pamphlets.

I know that was a long train of names, but I thought I would mention all the people involved.

So there we are, filming in the Library having a blast. If you want to know how to have fun, film a movie with your family, that truely is a blast!

God is Good

I have a favorite Psalm that I would like to share with you. I t is Psalm number 40 and has a message about how God saves us when we cry for him.

Psalm 4o

Verses 1-5

1

I waited patiently for the LORD;

he turned to me and heard my cry.

2

He lifted me out of the slimy pit, out of the mud and the mire;

he set my feet on a rock and gave me a firm place to stand.

3

He put a new song in my mouth,

a hymn of praise to our God.

Many will see and fear and put their trust in the LORD.

4

Blessed is the man who makes the LORD his trust, who does not look

to the proud, to those who turn aside to false gods.

5

Many, O LORD my God, are the wonders you have done.

The things you planned for us no one can recount to you;

were I to speak and tell of them,

they would be too many to declare.
