We participated in a WONDERFUL All Hallow’s Eve party with our Immaculate Heart of Mary homeschooling group on Saturday. It was truly a terrific afternoon celebrating the origins of the true Halloween. Our family had not celebrated this holiday for about 10 years. However, last year we were introduced to the Catholic origins of this meaningful holiday. I reluctantly participated trusting in the goodness of the party’s organizers. It was a real treat (no pun intended 
) and this year’s festivities were even better!!!
