Midwinter Ceremonies are here!
We have been going to the Longhouse every day now for the past 18 days. Giving thanks to the Creator for the gifts that are given to us. These ceremonies that we’ve been going to have been a part of Haudenosaunee life forever.
Getting ready is always the fun part in our family. When we go to Longhouse, we wear our Ongwehonwe or original dress. We get our kids ready first because they are always itching to get down to ceremonies ‘right away’. Today the kids were so patient that my wife was able to snap this picture as they waited for me to get ready.
Boy I’ve got good kids.
