1st Communion



Hello! I am finally posting pics from Gavin's 1st Communion and party last Sunday; it was a WONDERFUL day! He looked so handsome and was so sincere in church with his hands folded in prayer the whole time.

Here he is above on the way to church... so darn cute!
Some of the pretty little girls posing before church; the 3rd one from the right is my friends daughter "K" who loves Gavin to pieces!! I adore her too; he's grossed out by her... lol!!

The little guy on the left is Gavins' best friend "M"; he's such a sweet and kind lil boy!
The gorgeous Miss "C" on left holds a place in my heart too.
Her father was murdered at the beginning of this school year by a couple who were going to rent an apartment from him... such a tragic awful story! The scumbags just got sentenced to 55 years in prison; I hope its 55 years to life!! She is such a good little girl, her mom and I have become good friends.
In the midst of all the pain, her mom just graduated with her Bachelors Degree last week; I'm so proud of her!

Here is my darling; with a bit of a tan from playing outside on Saturday!
He also learned to ride a bike without training wheels on Saturday too; at my friends house!!
Of course, I wasn't there but when I picked the boys up he was eager to show me:)
He got his first major case of road rash yesterday, when he wiped out in the cul-de-sac! Poor thing is worried about how he will kneel in church tomorrow!!

Here he is as he processes into church ♥

I went to GRADE SCHOOL with both of these little girls moms!!
How ironic that our 3 kids made their First Communion together!

Little stinker didn't tell me that he was picked to carry gifts at mass either!!
He wanted to SURPRISE me!! ♥
And here he is receiving Communion for the very first time; it was such a wonderful moment:)

Love him ♥ ♥

The GROUP shot!!
After the professional photographer took a group photo... they let the parents take some pics.
Gavin told me he "felt like they were being attacked by the PAPPARAZZI"!!!!
LOL!!! He cracks me up!

After communion pics...
Gavin with Nana; who is also his Godmother!

My legs look sooo bad!!
My hubby looks so thrilled huh?? lol!

Here is the reveal of my dress... size 14... down 2 dress sizes and my CUTE yellow shoes...
Yea, I don't look so hot:(

Love this one; I prefer head shots anyways!!


My 3 HUNKS!! ♥

I asked my hubby to smile and I get this...
Geez!! Little too much teeth huh?

Me and hubby love, acting like an idiot!
Gotta love em though:)

The PAR-TAY...


The cakes made by my mom along with some White Chocolate Mints... yum!



The chocolate one was the YUMMIEST!!!!!

Mom also bought this pretty centerpiece too...

Hope you are having a great week!

WOW! I am tired just reading this! You are one busy girl!! I love you honored that sweet little girl! How awful. I am glad she and her mom are rising above it. Congrats again to your sweet Gavin! What a great ceremony. We have one in the Episcopal Church but not that big! Good luck on you last final but I don't think you need it and enjoy your time off from school!
Hugs, Lisa

What a handsome fellow! I remember when my 14 year old wouldn't go without a tie and jacket to church--now I'm doing good if he doesn't wear shorts!
Your legs look great! Mine are so white I look like I'm wearing white hose! I need some of that spray on tan stuff! BTW, love the dress. Congrats on losing 2 dress sizes! Awesome! Do well on your final!
