George's First Holy Communion

George received his first Holy Communion on Saturday, May 3 at the 10:30 a.m. Mass.  It was a beautiful Mass and he was so excited and proud.  He did a great job and just looked so darn handsome.  The gorgeous spring weather also added to the beauty of the day.  Of course I was busy taking pictures.  George told me at the end of the day, "this was a day to take lots of pictures". 

Ready for his big day.  He was dressed and ready by 8 a.m. for 10:30 a.m. Mass.

George picked out a few decorations at Party City.

A picture of the St. George icon my mom painted for George.  She will deliver it person when she is feeling better.  Unfortunately she was not feeling well and couldn't be there on Saturday.  :(

I just love this picture.  Doesn't he look like he could be in a kids' clothing catalog?

Awesome day and awesome gifts.

He did it!
