Mother's Day - May 11, 2008
Maddy had to show up at Mass in her First Holy Communion Dress.... The party lasts!






Karin AKA Omi was at Mass in the morning. So we got to spend time with her there. Later in the day she was off to Vacation in Big Bear.



We went to the park in the afternoon with Grandma and Franny and the crew. The kids had a blast.
What better way to spend Mother's day!

Anna and Adrian had a blast on his Quad. The were really going fast down some hills. You could tell they were having the time of their short lives!

Madeline's First Holy Communion turned out to be a beautiful day.



Ken and I felt a little sad. I thought this day would be so far away, and it snuck up on us. Maddy looked beautiful and is as beautiful on the inside as she is on the out. We are so proud and blessed to have such an awesome kid.



Anna was calling out to me as we walked up the isle. "Mommy, I hold you! Mommy, I hold you!" I just smiled and kept on walking.

We were so excited and surprised to see Aunt Mary there. Mom sometimes is good at surprises! I did not even think to ask her to make the trip down. But mom did. We were very glad she made it and pretty excited because Charlie met her for the first time since he was a baby.
