I've made these costumes over the years. This year I only had the time and energy for making a black bonnet for St. Elizabeth Ann Seton. Thankfully, Catherine had never worn our Kateri Tekakwitha outfit. And Sophia had never worn the Mother Teresa costume. Anna LOVES being St. Elizabeth of Hungary. And Kolbe cares mostly about saints with swords! =)
Here is today's line up of saints.
Blessed Virgin Mary
St. Kateri Tekakwitha
*playing Saint Musical Chairs*
St. George (with real shield & sword!!)
*Every year Kolbe chooses to be either St. Michael the Archangel or St. George. I think he's been St. Francis once. Before he knew about swords. Next year I hope to steer him towards a different type of saint. Perhaps a martyr? =)
Bl. Mother Teresa
St. Elizabeth of Hungary
St. Elizabeth Ann Seton
