Visiting

Hello :)
Over the past few weeks I have been visiting a nursing home which is run by Little Sisters of the Poor. I visit every Tuesday for about an hour, with a group of my friends. We normal split up with the boys, usually the girls run activities and the boys go and visit the men and talk to them. The past few times we have been making cards, which has been heaps of fun! :) The ladies are sooooo sweet!!! I really do love all of them!! :)

Today was sorta a sad day because we had a going away party for the Director of the nursing home. It was so nice seeing how much everyone missed her! Some of the elderly ladies sang going away songs for her...it nearly made me cry :(

I really do love visting the elderly! If any of you are considering going and visiting the elderly I would definitely recommend it! Though I have to say it is better going in a group ;)

Speak to you soon!

Ave Maria!

Love Story

One of my friends recommened this song to me - Love Story (Taylor Swft).
Well now it is one of my fav songs!!! It is the first song on my 'iPod' (the pink music thing on the right) if you want to listen to it :)

Solemnities

I never knew there were so many solemnities during lent!

St Patrick's Day - 17th March
St Jospeh's Feast Day - 19th March
Feast of the Annunciation - 26th March

I seem to celebrate solemities alot more during lent...maybe 'cause we can eat sweet things? (don't tell anyone I said that!) lol

No, but honestly I do =] Especially when lent is a sorrowful time of year, it makes you realize how joyful these days really are supposed to be!

As a family we all like to make and effort to go to mass on these days. On St Patrick's Day we also try and wear something green! :) It can be quite amusing getting dressed in the morning...I mean my sister wore a Christmas top just because it was green! (It did look rather funny :p). St Joseph is also my little cousin's patron saint, so when his feast comes around we make a cake and celebrate it!! We don't normally celebrate the Feast of the Annunciation as much as we should but yesterday we did make a cake and our uncle to us from the bible :)

Well, I hope you girls all enjoyed these special days during lent and really celebrated them!!!

Talk to you soon!

Ave Maria!

Hello

Hello Girls!

Wow, it has been a while since I last posted!!! -soz!

Well, to start with, we recently killed a snake...and I got stung by a bee... :(
Yesterday, which was Saturday, I went to work (I work at the local bakery) anyway, one of the girls had her last day that day...we were all pretty sad cause we had been working with her for nearly two years :(

...but we decided to give her a surprise flouring!!!! :D You can probablly guess what happened next... lol We were COMPLETELY covered in flour!!! Unfortunately, water was involved aswell, so it ended up being a sticky mess! It took us about an hour and a half to clean it all up - it was worth it though!!! :)

That's bascially it for now...will post again soon :)

Ave Maria,
Mon x
