We are so blessed in our Faith, that the Church gives us many examples of saints to emulate throughout the year. December is rich with feasts of Our Lady and other saints. December 13 is the Feast of St. Lucy. Our family has celebrated this feast for many years, since our now 25-year-old-daughter was in second grade. Here are a few images from the celebration.

I am such an emotional soul these days – Your beautiful family brings me to tears. Thanks for sharing! I love you all so much.
Thanks for posting these pictures, Mom! And thanks to you and Dad for celebrating with us.
