Backing up again so I don’t forget!
November 11th was Veteran’s Day and on our church calendar we celebrate St. Martin’s Day. I look forward to this day every year. Mostly because it’s the one day I enjoy these delicious horseshoe cookies. I know, I’m so pious.
My mouth waters as they bake the day before, it’s so hard to wait until the 11th before I eat one. No one else will eat them, so once it’s St. Martin’s Day they’re all mine!

I was looking forward to All Saint’s Day all week. I love this day as I alread said. Even with all the crazy that Sundays bring to our house and to my mood I looked forward to hearing, or overhearing a bit, the readings of the day and a sermon of comfort and hope.

I think with the passing years All Saints Day is becoming one of my favorite days on our church calendar. I love me some Halloween as we celebrate it in our culture, but I’m also starting to love what Halloween is the ‘Eeen of even more and because of that we began our All Saints celebrating earlier in the week emphasizing the special day that was coming. I’m even contemplating a different route next year of dressing as saints for Halloween. Another teaching opportunity and wonderful way to remember those of the Church Triumphant.

Last Sunday we celebrated the Reformation. I gave the babies 2 new books this year which was fun since Lily loves to read and can begin to understand more.
