Last week, we attended the Catholic Marketing Network Tradeshow, which included the gathering of the Catholic Writers Guild. I’m a part of both Catholic groups and we had our own booth for our Catholic craft kits, books and cards: Arma Dei: Equipping Catholic Families.

Sorry, I’ve been away! I thought I would be able to blog during our trip to Chicago, but it was just too busy and fun! Here are some quick pictures from our trip!

MAC Rally of Hope
Last week, the Mortgage Alliance Rally of Hope fundraiser event was hosted in our little town.
There was a firetruck…
and a firehose…
…and a nice Fireman who let a couple kids in the truck.
not one Catholic Craft in this post
Most of the time, I spend my words in the blogging world on Catholic crafts, activities celebrating the Liturgical Calendar, family traditions…and sometimes family birthday parties and other curious adventures. Here are 7 posts where I have strayed a little out of my comfort zone…and published them as a guest blogger somewhere else!
a WINNER, Backyard Shenanigans, Weaponry, Steubenville Toronto and Date Night
We’ve got a WINNER!
Congrats to Martianne from Training Happy Hearts …for winning her choice of Cathletics Craft Kit! Thanks to all those who commented on our post last week at Equipping Catholic Families and on our facebook page!
Feast Day Fun at Equipping Catholic Families
We have just launched a new series here at Equipping Catholic Families and it’s called Feast Day Fun. It’s a new commitment to present special Saints’ Feast Days, illustrated with our own Kelly Saints from the Saint Scripts Craft Kits and offering a brief bio about the Saint. We are also showcasing a few activities to celebrate each Saint’s life, taking excerpts from
A Road Trip, IHM, Corpus Christi Procession …and Graduations!
Prom, Track, Birthday, Cousins and Scissors Practice
7 Awesome Feast Days in June
Ascension
So, officially, Ascension Thursday was May 29, but up here in Canada we celebrated it on Sunday June 1st, so I’m including it in my list of June Feasts! My special craft for the Feast of the Ascension really didn’t work too well, but I will probably try bubble painting again when I figure out the right mix. I think the Egg Carton Jesus cheers up the craft…you can still see my Ascension Craft Fail and if you know what I did wrong, please tell me in the comments!
June! 7 Quick Pics
This blogging thing can be hard work…particularly when a lot of life is going on! Life is hectic but exciting right now and although I’ve been trying to keep up by taking pictures, I don’t want to just keep listing all the events. I’m not sure that I can come up with a witty or charming narration right now, but here are a couple snapshots into our life!
