Three Link-Ups in One Post!

1)
The Wise Men ADVENTures continue (link-up with Jennifer)
Day 4: Travelling in the cat's tunnel toy..."and then I walked through the Lincoln Tunnell."
Day 5: Who are these impostors?

Day 6: Following the star.

Day 7: Finding gold for the King.

Day 8: Climbing to higher ground.
2)
Mary has a favorite image of Our Lady link-up going on, and mine is so obvious.  


It's actually my little Blogger photo whenever I leave comments on blogs.  Not because I think I am Mary-like, but because I like Mary :)  We also having it hanging above our fireplace in our home:
Kids dressed up on All Saints Day

She's called Madonna of the Streets, and I loved this image from the first time I saw it (which I can't even remember!)  because Mary looks so young and innocent, holding her sleeping baby boy, yet like she knows what the future holds.  Whenever I'm having a difficult mothering day, I look to her and think "If she could go through all of that so young, maybe there's hope for me too."  I could ponder images of Mary forever...what did she know, how did she feel, what was she thinking?  I love her so.

Linking up with Rosie for What They Said:

Playing hide and seek with Phil...
Xander: Hey, you scared me!  You a bad boy!


Maggie's new bedroom door sign.  Glad I'm an adult!
Xander: I wanna get in there with the baby!

Now we're just waiting for the snow!!  Stay warm everybody :)

  2. Your kids always so the cutest things!

    And I always knock, as I'm entering. I'm sure I'll stop and pause and wait for a "Come in" when they are a little older but for now, I charge on in!

  3. I was hoping you'd link that one! We have that one hanging in our house, too. I've never taken the time to look into how she got that title, though. I bet it's a neat story! Thanks for linking up!

  5. Oh man, Xander's face in that last picture is maybe one of the most terrifying yet hilarious sights ever!

  6. I'm here from the wise men link-up, looking for ideas. The pose with the "impostors" cracked me up. As did Maggie's sign.
    Have a lovely day!
