Our Home Has Been Blessed!

 Our House is Blessed! 

It is so very nice to have one's house blessed 

with prayer, holy water, oil and incense!

Our priest, his Matuska and son stayed for dinner;

Mr. Husband's parents have known them all for years

and it was a lovely time of fellowship and reminiscing!

Table Cloth and Candle holders were wedding gifts to me

from my Ottawa parish.

I also used rose tea towels and apron from IKEA

I got these from the IKEA gift card

that my Ottawa church family also gave me.

So it was full of many memories and love, this meal...
