Sweetness and Light

Quiet

Sorry it's been so quiet here as of late. We've been busy and sick, not a good combination.

Here are a few highlights of the good stuff ~

The boys have been cranking out the music in a lovely Piano Trio for Cello and Oboe this fall; their recital is first part of December.

Wednesday has been deemed "Scone Day" by Violet who creates a new delicacy each week. Wednesday morning is now my favorite time of the week :)))

Sean-Paul is furiously trying to keep up with his rollerblading brothers and has been showing me his moves in the afternoon, thanks to our mostly rain-free autumn thus far.

Our Wooly-bears are officially hibernating (yes, there are two now). We can't wait for Spring to see their transformation...

What's new with you??? God Bless and thanks for popping in, see you soon :)

Saintly

I hope you all celebrated a lovely Feast of All Saints yesterday. Ours included a beautiful Mass and yummy dinner followed by our traditional Saints Charades game! Here are a few of the Saints we guessed:

Saint George ~

Saint Don Bosco ~

Saint Matthew ~

Saint Kateri Tekakwitha ~

There were other saints who made appearances ~ St. Francis of Assisi curing the leper and taming the wolf of Gubbio. Andrew and James bringing in the great catch of fish, St. Rose of Lima, St. Lazurus and St. Catherine of Siena. Many blessings in our great Communion of Saints and for a blessed Commemoration of All the Faithful Departed today!
