Caterpillars, Confirmation and More

+JMJ+

My blog is acting wonky for me so some of the words and pictures might be oddly spaced and sized.

I found a tiny Monarch caterpillar at work. One of the kids decided to call it Coco. It has since turned into a Chrysalis.

 

We had twenty-eight monarch caterpillars in here at one point.

We got together with some friends at a park one Sunday.

In spite of everything that happened this year our Diocese still had a Traditional Confirmation.

Kili served for the first time as well as making his Confirmation.

Several of my cousins made their confirmation too, but I failed to get pictures of everyone.

I was my cousin's sponsor.

We went to a party for Beladonna.

We went bowling and played games.

The family I work for now has a dog. I'm not an indoor pet person, but she can be cute.

I slowed down on my drawings. Technically this should be on my other blog.

We got over a hundred baby chicks.

They were so cute and fluffy when we first got them.

 Watching the floating lanterns glow.

 I spy the lantern.

Fluffing up the lantern.

Lighting the candle thing.

It's lit.

Ready to go.

Filling up with hot air.

And it's off. 

 

So many Bridal Showers had to be cancelled this year. But since we already had the stuff for our cake decorating contest we did it anyway.

I guess I didn't take any pictures of completed cupcakes.

Rosie, Eleanor and I spent a week with Galadriel and Celeborn.

 

Unpacking.

Who knows what's going on here.

 Lunch.

 

I made some fresh blackberry pies.

 

A small child stole my phone and took a picture. Usually I delete them.

Family Reunion.

Galadriel and Celeborn came down for it.

On the way home we stopped at this neat little restaurant.

Strange dog in our driveway.

Sursum Corda Retreat. This year the talks were on the virtue of Justice.

 

This year because of the Covid-19 we had the chapel in a bigger room.

 

Board and card games.

 

This year someone brought a statue of St. Philomena.

This little guy got really close to Rosie before escaping.

God Bless you All,
