September days

 






We went to the sand bar near Spring Greene and it was lots of fun! (especially since we had the place to ourselves)














Playing Mass again, this time with a stick and bucket so they can do the Asperges Me.








some very strange potatoes that we dug up from the garden




A park in Warren, IL



Apple River Canyon State Park










Jacob and Timmy went to Altar Server training for the first time. They really liked it and learned a lot.

Immediately after server training was Mass...and WOW was a surprised when both of them came out of the sacristy wearing a cassock and surplus! They did a great job up there!
