Reformation 500!
Don't miss the coupon and freebie at the bottom
I have to admit I don't know much about the upcoming Reformation 500 Celebration from July 1-4 in Boston because we thought we couldn't go. When we realized we had a scheduling conflict, we just put it out of our minds. People - lots of people! - asked if we were going, breathless with excitement, but we just smiled and shook our heads, content with our lot.
But guess what? It looks like we can pull it off! We get to have our cake and eat it too.
Say it with me: We're going to Boston!
Now who's going with us?
I'm finally finding out what it's about, and it's going to be great! What's your favorite part? I know there's going to be costumes, historic mini-tours, lectures by our favorite speakers, re-enactments, luxury accommodations, the famous Vision Forum book table staffed by yours truly, and an exclusive coupon for Life in a Shoe readers.

Oh, how exciting! We’ll be there too, Lord willing.
We’re going and I can’t believe it’s just a month away! I’m terribly excited and praying that we’ll all be in good health when we get there. All of my babies had terrible head colds, their noses were rubbed raw from tissues when we went to Jamestown, so we skipped out on most of the activities. Surely that couldn’t happen twice?!! Maybe we’ll go on quarantine for 2 weeks proceeding the trip
We didn’t attend the Jamestown festivities because we lived a couple of miles from the Settlement for almost 10 years back in the 90s and had visited a ton of times. But…we ARE going to Boston and are very excited! The kids and I have never been, but my husband lived in Boston for a summer in college and actually attended the Boston Pops concert and 4th of July fireworks (but that was 30 years ago). I think we’ll all enjoy it being there together this year–plus, it’s my birthday week!
Very nice! Boston is one of my very favoritest places on earth.
History just oozes from the streets. I hope you’ll love it.
It pains me not to go because we’re within easy driving distance, but even with 25% off, the conference cost alone is too much for our budget.
Enjoy!
That’s great! We’re going to do a Reformation tour in Europe next month with my dad; I couldn’t be more excited!
We are going! I look forward to meeting you and your fabulous family in person. Woo hoo! Boston here we come.
Oh, I LOVE, LOVE, LOVE Boston. We actually honeymooned there 21 years ago and haven’t been back!! We can’t attend but hope you all have a great time!!! Love the dress pattern-be sure to show us when it’s completed!
Maybe this is a weird question, but why is this event called Reformation 500 when really that would be in 2017? Is there some other even that VF is honoring?
OK, nevermind- I see it’s the 500th birthday of John Calvin, not Martin Luther’s nailing the 95 Theses. Funny, I was thinking the VF event had to do with the Protestant Reformation! That’s the theme of our summer’s tour, but it’s not a centennial-year event.
Y’all really do write very interesting. I can’t make it to Boston, due to living down where people say “y’all.”
This is off the topic of your post, but since y’all are home schooling …
The “have your cake and eat it, too” saying stumped me most of my life. Of course I can have my cake and eat it, too!
Then, in my 30′s, someone told me that the original saying was “eat your cake and have it, too.”
Oh, once you eat it, you can’t have it anymore. That was probably obvious to everyone else, but i didn’t get it until I was over 30 years old.
