Saint Doll Exchange

I am a part of our church's Mom's Group.  Last month, you could sign up to be a part of a "Peg Doll Exchange".  Everyone in the group picks a different saint.  I chose St. Rose of Lima.  

Next, I had to paint 23 (that's how many people participated) St. Rose dolls.  Then at our monthly meeting, we did a swap and I came home with 23 different Saint dolls.  

Just as I predicted would happen, I didn't start working on these little ladies until 4 days before they were due.

{Savannah was so excited to play with them  the next morning.}

 {She likes lining them up and then knocking them down. I can't wait until she starts asking questions about these amazing people and I can share their stories with her.}
