First Holy Communion

All dressed up .....

 

for cousin Andrew's First Holy Communion. (andrew is behind the little girl).

The children all sang a beautiful song.

Outside the Church Andrew was all smiles for the camera with his mom, dad, sister and brother.

 Godparents too of course.

 And how can you do anything but smile at the Cousin picture.

 Seriously, did you think I would be left out?  Auntie Pooh?  Giving Andrew a big old kiss- - - because I think at this age it's easy to make kids blush :-)

And how proud are we all at the magnificent job Andrew did in participating with ceremony.  He was chosen to bring up the Bible - a poignant symbol that Grandma pointed out.
