With all of our imperfections, we begin and end each day at the foot of the cross. It is here where our story begins and we pray it is where it will end. "Jesus said: Come to me, all you who labor and are burdened, and I will give you rest. Take my yoke upon you and learn from me, for I am meek and humble of heart; and you will find rest for yourselves. For my yoke is easy, and my burden light." ~Matthew 11:28-30~
Listen to God's voice at the foot of the crucifix." ~St. Gaspar del Bufaro~

All Saint's Day...Years Past
For my record keeping, I thought it would be fun to post our old photos from All Saint's Day celebrations over the past few years. With All Saint's Day right around the corner, I thought this post might also provide a few visual aids for people looking for ways to put together costumes for their celebrations:) Be sure to visit Lacy over at Catholic Icing for a litany of many other Saintly ways to dress up too!
You guys have had some really awesome costumes!! Forgotten how you stick saint cards into your wreath - great idea. Can't wait to see what you come up with for this year!!
I have to say that I love them all! what a wonderful liturgical tradition you have created in your home, that your children love to dress up as Saintly heroes!! I do think St. Joan of Arc is fantastic-- she's my confirmation saint :). Copying your Blessed Kateri costume from last year, Flower was excited to dress up at Blessed Kateri this year, but now is struggling between that and Belle the princess. :(
