Finishing the Year

Yesterday we had some fun wrapping up a couple of the programs we've been doing this year. We ended the delightful day with a May Crowning. 

The girls all met for their last meeting of "Tea And Cake With the Saints".  This has been a lovely program for the girls in our homeschool group.  The boys all came here to play, although a few escaped before I could take the picture!

After the girls were done, the boys and I loaded up in the van and went over to where the girls were and we did our final meeting for Catholic Mosaic, boys and girls together.  We read the wonderful new book, Take It to the Queen! and did a cute craft.  A friend told a little story about how the Lady Bug was named for Our Lady, so of course, the craft was all about Lady Bugs!  Very easy to make with a thumbprint and Sharpie marker!

We had the all important snack which consisted of lemonade and trail mix that the girls had made during Tea and Cake, then ended with a beautiful May Crowning. 

The three boys who made their First Communion this year had the honor of crowning Mary.  What a great way to end the school year!
