Feast of Our Lady of Guadalupe

Pictures from last year’s feast of Our Lady of Guadalupe – December 12, 2024

Happy feast of Our Lady of Guadalupe!

The little girls actually made a shopping list for me this week, insisting on our annual brunch for dinner tonight and definitely St. Lucia Braided Bread and Lussekatter for tomorrow. I love that the girls have been looking forward to it this much! Our 8 year old is referencing these photos and setting the table as I type! ❤️

Note: We are substituting our usual “Crushed Serpent” extra crispy bacon for gummy worms since it’s meatless Friday … tears… as my oldest son would say… I could have actually had the bacon on this strictly keto diet I’ve been on for a couple months now! I’m going to attempt a keto crepe for myself with whipped heavy cream and a scoop of this Superfood Creamer Peppermint Mocha in some Sleeping St. Joseph Decaf Dark Roast.

St. Juan Diego’s (Crepe) Tilma with (Strawberry) Roses & Whipped Cream

A Woman Clothed with the Sun (Oranges)

Crushed Serpent (Extra Crispy Bacon) *Substitute with something else for Friday

Crescent Moon Rolls and Starry Cinnamon Rolls

Crown of 12 Stars Dark Chocolate Stars

Bishop Zumarraga’s Candy Cane Crosier

Aztec Cocoa and Orange Juice

I also usually cut the crepes into Tilma shape, but skipped that step last year. You can see pictures from 2013 here – the kids were all so little!

“Am I not here who am your Mother?  Are you not under my shadow and protections? Am I not the fountain of your joy? Are you not in the fold of my mantle, in the cradle of my arms?”

– Blessed Virgin Mary to St. Juan Diego

Prayer of Mothers

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.

A Little About Me

Hi! I'm Jessica, a Roman Catholic wife and home educating mother to our nine children. I was home educated myself, along with my eleven younger siblings. I have a special devotion to St. Therese, through whom I have been given much help and many blessings--the beautiful "Shower of Roses" that she has sent my way! Here I will record a few of the blessings I treasure. Please remember that what you see here is just a little glimpse at our lives, so please say a prayer for us, as we continue to strive for holiness.
