Well it happened! My baby made her first communion. This is special for me because this is really the first thing that Claire has done that I completely remember doing! I can close my eyes and recall my first communion like it was yesterday, so to see my baby making her communion was incredible!
Claire did a great job in church! She was so excited!
My baby!
Even from behind, she is just the cutest!
All finished and proud as a peach!
We are all so proud of my our special girl!
Nana and Papa were proud too!
And of course, Grandma and Grandpa too! I bet that Grandpa can remember making his first communion too!
After a beautiful mass, it was time to party! The cake topper was my mother's from her communion! And after her special day I got to use it and now Claire! Let's hope that I don't lose it before Claire has a daughter!
And Claire's Bible was mine from my confirmation. So, there was a lot of things being passed down today.
Of course, I was having such a great time at the party that I didn't really take too many pictures! But here are some of my girls (and my mom and dad)!
Mark, Aunt Diane, Grandma, and the Godmother!
Me and my girls (minus a few).
I was so happy that yesterday I made time to take some shots of Claire! She loved posing and I am so happy that I have some formal shots of her special day!
So grown up.
I love those eyes.
God, I love her.
It was such an amazing day. Even though the weather was horrible and it actually SNOWED today! I am so proud of my angel!
God bless you, Claire Margaret!
