Emma's Day

Last Friday was a very special day for our oldest daughter Emma, as she made her three year vows as a religious sister.    In 2013 she will make her final vows and be a fully professed sister of The Home of the Mother.  We were unable to share in her day in a physical way but united ourselves to her spiritually.  Uncle Bryan and Aunty Maureen came and we prayed the joyful mysteries of the rosary:

Mucky Pup!

After tea we spied the berry bushes groaning with fruit and sallied forth in harvesting our hoard:

Dad doing his bit!



Pip helping too



All harvested... we filled six large bowls and collected 16lbs of berries.

In closing here is a special picture of our Em, taken earlier in the year when she was in Lebanon:

May God continue to guide you and bless all that you do, with much love Dad and Mum xxx
