This is the roobe actually behind the alter where masses are held at the church, people buy candles to light for their promises and prayers and take them to this room and light them. My husband and son praying and making their petitions...
They sell bottles that you can fill with Holy Water, and this is the large fountain outside the church where people fill their containers of holy water, this Jug is for Aunt Doe...
You can't even imagine the number of candles that are lit at the church on a daily basis, they have people that pull the trays as they are filled when people light them and move them to this room where it is filled with lit candles that remain there until they completely burn... amazing....
It makes you wonder, the hopes, prayers, heartaches, thanks, wishes of all the people that these candles are burning for....
This is the alter at the church...
The advent wreath at the church... the large candles are almost as tall as Noah...
This was the manger scene on display at the gift shop....
Funny... RV Park... not really a light spectacular...
This reminded me of Skids and Mudflap from the transformers movie... mini-cop
The tree at Dairy Burger... I know I know, they didn't have the ones up at the church yet! in my defense... but I though it was really cool that they had this huge live tree in the restaraunt...
God Bless those steak strips!
It was a wonderful weekend, we spent good family time together and I really enjoyed that...
...and hello, the Longhorns won... what more could we ask for!
Go Horns!
