Craft Party!

Last week one of my friends invited me over for group craft night.  We headed to Michaels with our coupons, bought everything with glitter, opened a couple bottles of wine and got to work!

One of the girls had already gotten to work on table centerpieces earlier that day.  They turned out great, this picture doesn't do it justice.

We all bought materials for making a cool holiday wreath.  For me, I got a foam ring, gold ribbon, glitter garland, and 3 red glitter floral pieces.  I tacked the embellishments to the foam wth floral pins.  It was incredibly easy and quick and I loved the way it turned out!

Here is my friend's wreath made with yarn.

My wreath looks so festive on my front door with my Dollar Tree wreath hanger!

Happy Holidays!

The Holy Spirit Popping In

After I shared my photos from Medjugorje with my group of pilgrims, one of them sent me an email saying she spotted the Holy Spirit.  How awesome!

When I took this picture of the statue outside St. James Church, I was mostly paying attention to the lighting and exposure.  Unfortunately, I over looked the birds and especially the bird in the upper right corner.  I couldn't tell you if they were flying around or just appeared in the picture.

I am not sure about this picture because I don't like to doubt God's presence in my life and I also don't like to reach for signs that he is near.  I know he's present and near.  Anyway, I do really like this picture.
