A few friends will be arriving shortly to celebrate the feast of Our Lady of Lourdes, and I still need to bake some muffins… But, I just had to jump online real quick and post a picture of our Fruity Pebbles Grotto with you all! Didn’t it turn out cute?! We had so much fun putting it together!
Father in heaven, grant me the grace to appreciate the dignity which you have conferred on me. Let me realize that not even the Angels have been blessed with such a privilege—to share in your creative miracle and bring new Saints to heaven. Make me a good mother to all my children after the example of Mary, the Mother of your Son. Through the intercession of Jesus and Mary I ask your continued blessings on my family. Let us all be dedicated to your service on earth and attain the eternal happiness of your kingdom in heaven. Amen.
Oh my gosh! That is too cute!! I like all your little wooden saints, too.
What an adorable grotto!
Hi Dear Family!
I just found your blog and I love it!!! I was nanny for one year at Berkeley and I just miss “my” babies a lot… and now I am in Brasil, far away and I work to and for the families. Your blog is great! So lovely, so human!!! Thank you for fiding time – how can you do!!! – to do that. I fell so lasy now!!
God bless you! I will come here always now.
Happy Feast of Our Lady!!

That is so cute! It looks yummy, too!
Oh it is so cute! And Mary turned out great as well. I’m going to ask again: How tall are your wooden saints?
How cute! 🙂
Sara ~ I am sorry! I must have missed your question… The Wooden Dolls I’ve used are: 7/8″x2 3/8″. I purchased them from “A Child’s Dream Come True.”
Julie Maria ~ Thank you for visiting. It is nice to meet you!
Thank you everyone for all the comments!! The grotto really was a lot of fun to make and did turn out cute. I was sad to see it get eaten! =)
