Best All Saints Party EVER!

We get to go to the most AWESOME All Saints party ever. Ever! It's a benefit for the high schoolers at WWD's school, to raise funds for their trip to the March for Life in DC in January. Hundreds of miniature saints congregate at our friends' house in the woods, for games and prizes in the barn, a potluck dinner, little saints' parade, saints' candy trail, Litany of the Saints around the bonfire, and the grande finale of the evening, for big kids only (including JPD, naturally): the very, very spooky trail through the woods in the dark. SO much fun!

Here are our little saints for this year...

Saint Paul:


Saint Therese:


Our Lady of Guadalupe:


St. Juan Diego:


St. Michael the Archangel:


You want another look at Juan Diego and Our Lady, don't you?


And the whole gang of saints...

(Never mind St. Therese's habit, which was a major victim of the wind. It was quite a problem for her, but you know our brave Therese...always offering up those little sacrifices!)

Here's the entrance to the very cool spooky trail:


MPD probably had more fun than anyone at the party. He ate a bit of dinner, then passed on the rest of the evening's activities, opting instead to drive around and around the driveway with his friends, including lots of crashing:


What a great party!

But you're hoping for another look at St. Juan Diego, right?
