Nuns Picture Thread

I believe that is actually a picture from last years class early in their postulancy. I know a couple of the girls and one of them discerned a couple months after entering that she wasn't called there and she is in that picture.

I do love the DSMME group photos though!

Yeah, it is last year's picture. They are now in beautiful white and have new names! It's the nun picture thread- they don't have to be current, do they???

I was just looking at those cornettes again. I wonder how much starch was used in getting them to stand so straight. And I'd have hated to be the sister who had to starch and iron them.

I have been told by multiple Sisters that it took a lot of starch and ironing. They also spent several hours perfecting it. There is also one pin in it, if I remember correctly.
