Pretty, Happy, Funny, Real and Statues

Linking up with Like Mother, Like Daughter for PHFR and Clan Donaldson for Theme Thursday: Statues.

I've posted this picture before, but I just love it, so I have to re-post.

Greta, hugging the Mary statue at our church.

And, here's a shot of the whole Mary-Garden at our current parish.

This picture makes me happy.   This is the Mary/Jesus statue in front of the Ave Maria School of Law in Naples.  It reminds me of happy times.   When we first moved down to Naples, I couldn't wait to be done, couldn't wait until Ben had graduated and finished and taken the bar.  But, we had some good times down there in Naples and we made some awesome friends, and I'll always look back on it as a very happy time.

And, deviating from the statues theme.

There's a monster in our couch.

And, John is trying to save the Elsa from the Heidi-Monster while Greta watches.

And, you know you've made it as a parent when your kid can mow the lawn.
