Week in Review: Fashionably Unfashionable, Altar Boy Boot Camp and Patriotic Prepping

Happy Friday! last day of the work week because Independence Day is tomorrow!

After the vigil Mass on Saturday, Phil and I took the only two kids with us out on our weekly date, which they loved.  They both ordered steak tips - I guess gone are the days of chicken nuggets and mac n' cheese!  

Going out to eat is something I love doing, but just is not financially responsible for our whole family often, so it's nice to treat them one by one or two by two when we can.  Please don't mind their black socks and black shoes, I know it's not fashionable but they have to wear that for altar serving!


Maggie and Xander came home from the Steubenville Conference, which they absolutely loved and can't wait to go back again.
