Please join me and other Catholic bloggers at Conversion Diary for 7 Quick Takes Friday.
On Sunday, I’ll be traveling down to New Jersey to visit with my extended family and to take part in other various activities.
1. Hallahan High School
This Tuesday, I’ll be visiting my mother’s alma mater, Hallahan High School (My mom graduated with the Class of ’51) in Philadelphia to speak to some of the Freshmen Theology Classes. 
2. Reunion
Speaking of high schools, I’ll also be attending my 35-year high school reunion next week. I’m looking forward to seeing my fellow Class of ’77 classmates. It’s no surprise that I was one of the shortest in our class. The photo below was for the “Who’s Who’s” in the yearbook (that’s me on the left).
3. Frozen Footprints
Therese Heckenkamp’s exciting new novel, Frozen Footprints, has been released! Read my review here.
(I’m skipping #4 since I posted eight last week!)
5 and 6. We Sure Have Changed!
We recently had a formal family photograph taken for our parish directory. The last time we did this was 15 years ago before we had our youngest son (top). 
7. Let’s Get Healthy Cartoon

When you come to New Jersey, be sure to check out Sandy’s destruction. I toured Pt. Pleasant and Belmar today, the latter seemed really devastated.
Beautiful family!
I love that picture from high school! That’s almost beyond belief. 🙂
Ellen, I think you are dynamite wrapped up in a small package.
Beautiful family and photographs, then and now. Change can be grand.
Thanks so much for all your wonderful comments!
