Royal First Communion

Today is a very special day as this is the very first post on my BLOG...

After many weeks of preparation, and planning, this past Sunday May 6th we celebrated my son's Fist Holy Communion; what a blessed day for us it was.  As I remember my son walking down the isle to receive the Eucharist for the the fist time, tears fill my eyes with excitement and pride; my handsome little boy is now so grown.

Today I started sorting pictures of our party in honor of Ivan's first communion and wanted to share some with you and hopefully give you all some ideas and inspiration for one of your future events.

We had a wet week here in Jersey and rain was sure to ruin our outdoor get together!! Thank God the day of the party was as beautiful and sunny as can be!!! Thanks to my wonderful friend Kenya Lunsford for helping me setup the tables while I rushed to get myself and the three kid ready to go to Church!!! I could not have done it without you!!!! I love you girl!!!!
