Good ol' St. George

Happy Feast day of St. George!
This is surely all of my son's all time favorite Saints- St. George.
Then again, any saint that carries a sword and shield is most loved in this home!

So for today we have:
colored printable pages of this and this. (thank you Jessica!)

We were intending to have some dress up and sword fighting (like any other day in a home of boys!)but...talk about God's Divine Intervention...we could not find the dress up clothes of a knight's armor. Of course, no shock in this house...we've been through a few sets of those already. All in all, it was still a bit disappointing b/c of this feast day and my boys really wanted to play. Then after we were out doing our normal Thursday errands, we stopped by a friends house to say hello and it just so happened that they had some left over tag sale items she asked if we wanted. And in that pile was a knight armor dress up set!!! How cool!!! Thanks God!
So, here is a picture of kid #3 thoroughly enjoying his new set:

My friend apologized for not having a sword to go with it. I told her she need not be sorry. Boys can make ANYTHING into a sword! Ha ha!!!

Happy Feast day! We will hopefully be reading this tonight too.

God bless,
