Emily's 1st Communion

This past weekend, we celebrated another 1st communion...my niece, Emily's.  It was a beautiful day and she was a beautiful little girl!  It was so neat to see how excited her class was to receive their first communion.  We were especially happy, because a former priest of ours, Father Dave, was their officiant.  He did such a great job, especially during the sermon.  He came down and talked to each of the kids and really made it special for them!

 Receiving her certificate and gift.

 Emily and her cake...it was delicious!

 Mom and Dad, looking good!

 All three handsome grandsons!

 Little Miss Lucy enjoyed the sunshine too.

 We also got to meet Morgan for the first time.  She is a sweetie!

 Katie brought her 1st Communion dress so that we could get pictures of both girls together.  What a happy year for our family; two sweet girls receiving 1st Communion!

Little Kyran was on the go all day...but, what else is new with him!

Family Fun Night

Last night, we took Ben and went to Family Fun Night at the high school.  It was a great night (a little windy) for the bounce houses and he had an absolute blast...until the very end.  Let just say that involved a jousting ring, some miscommunication on my part, and some tears.  Not the best way to end the night, but all in all, he said it was "super fun"! 

Katie's Special Day!

Today we celebrated Katie's 1st Holy Communion...what a special, special day for her and her family.  We were so happy that we could spend the day with this sweet girl and witness this milestone in her faith journey.  We love you Katie!
