4Real Forums: Did you see these saint costumes??

Oh, Dearest Mother, Sweetest Virgin of Altagracia, our Patroness. You are our Advocate and to you we recommend our needs. You are our Teacher and like disciples we come to learn from the example of your holy life. You are our Mother, and like children, we come to offer you all of the love of our hearts. Receive, dearest Mother, our offerings and listen attentively to our supplications. Amen.

Forgive me if someone else already pointed these out, but these costumes are wonderful!

Those are fantastic!

Our hs group is having our party a tad late this year. We meet at the park on the first Friday after Mass so we decided to have it today.

We're on our way out the door but I had time to post a guessing game of my two "saints" on my blog just now.

Can you guess who we are?

Thanks for the sweet comment, Karen. My dose of reality was that our little St. Clare of Assisi had a soiled guimpe within 15 minutes of the party (cupcake decorating!) and our little Mary took off her costume within 5 minutes (literally). At least I got good pictures!

The cutest costume at our group's party was a little boy under 2 yo whose mother is obviously an expert seamstress. She sewed papal garments and he went as John Paul the Great. She put my hot glue gun costumes to shame.

OK, Cay. I'm guessing St. Elizabeth of Hungary and I'm still thinking on #2. The girls are just adorable. I hope you all have a great time at the party.

Cay, they are wonderful! I knew Elizabeth of Hungary, but had to think on St. Philomena. My kids often know more about the saints than I do!
