Fat Tuesday

In an effort to have my kiddos begin to learn

and live out the liturgical year

we made these


I do not think they really understood
the Mardi Gras mask idea.


However, this girl had fun making them!

Always fun trying to capture the gang

 in the same picture....

We also made King Cake from this recipe.

(that is Baby Jesus that Evan painted

 incase you did not recognize Him)

Since He is wooden we did not bake Him inside!

Again, trying to get a "good one" of everyone

 in the same picture is easier said than done!

This is about as good as it gets!
