We love to go to our local Care Home on Halloween too:) But didn't make it this year:( Love the Saint costumes...Awesome stripes on St. Max Kolbe and love that face of Jesus on St. Veronica's towel!The trumpet players must have been a fabulous and special touch:)<br /><br />P.S.

I love the huge sword...Up till 1am...you go girl. <br />I love the huge sword for St. Joan of Arc. Also for St. Veronica. That is a great idea.<br /><br />I admire you also for homeschooling. I think homeschooling families do an incredible job. I also believe a lot of the good comes from the home life that they are exposed too. <br /><br />So good to hang with the grammas and gran-pas. They need to see little cute pumpkins more often.<br /><br />I love all those homeschooled teenagers also. They look like they are having a good time.<br /><br />Cute cookies!Christinehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03030030108671604522noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7056332983367489033.post-32406589008841783102011-11-02T11:20:50.959-05:002011-11-02T11:20:50.959-05:00Great costumes and great fun!
I should have mailed...Great costumes and great fun!<br />I should have mailed you Luke's prisioner costume from last year when he was St.Max! Poor thing (couldn't have been good for that PG tush! :)<br />LOVED the idea for St. Veronica - might steal that one for next year!<br />ALso the St. Bernard dog. We have a dog outfit as well.<br />The kids were amazed to see Jedi playing trumpet. Way to go!!<br />Happy Feast of the Poor Souls - I know we share a passion for them!<br />We're doing "coffin" ice cream sandwiches for All Souls - just cut the corners to look like coffins! And also we have put picture of our deceased relatives on the table.<br />You have a lot to offer up for the Souls! :)Sarahnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7056332983367489033.post-26350017761511627032011-11-02T08:51:10.288-05:002011-11-02T08:51:10.288-05:00OK, the cookies were hard and the dough was very c...OK, the cookies were hard and the dough was very crumbly to work with...but that was fine, the kiddos ate the crumbs...the frosting was really really rich with the orange juice concentrate in it--good flavor, but I think maybe it would have been better to use milk as the liquid in the frosting and then add a little concentrate....The ratios were totally wrong in the recipe too, to get the right consistency. <br /><br />Like I said, Jedi loved them!! I, however, would rather save calories for chocolate. If it aint chocolate, it aint worth eating.<br /><br />haha!!<br /><br />Thanks Shelly!<br />Second Chances-I understand, I think it would be very hard to school one child....you'd need a good group or at least a lot of neighbors and play opportunities.Jamie Johttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17678469484585027738noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7056332983367489033.post-5078788721329262742011-11-02T07:35:08.834-05:002011-11-02T07:35:08.834-05:00That looks like so much fun!

I hate that generalization. <br /><br />I soooo wanted to homeschool Mikey, and we did for a year but there wasn't a group at the time for us to get involved with, and as an extroverted only child it wasn't working. Sigh. Maybe the next round of boys! I'm hoping!<br /><br />I love all those costumes, especially your little girls and St. Joan of Arc! Oh, and the St. Bernard.

They look terrific.<br /><br />And, as a public school teacher and a school board trustee for another public chool district, I applaud the great things you do in homeschooling.
