1st and 80th

We had a really special weekend!  On Saturday, Lydia celebrated her first Communion:

She read two of the petitions at Mass, and she did very well.  She was so excited throughout the Mass; it was fun to watch her enthusiasm.  
Right after Mass, we hurried off out of town, to get to my Mamaw's 80th birthday party!

Lydia changed out of her fancy clothes right after this picture, but Mamaw did get to see her all dolled up.

It was a really lovely day.  We had the party at a park, so the kids got to run around outside, and they played mini golf.  Nathaniel even got to enjoy a par 3 course with my cousin.  I got to visit with relatives that I don't get to see very often.  We all had a very good day.  We spent the night at my parents' house, and on Sunday at Mass, Lydia was excited to have her "second first Communion" during Mass like everyone else.  We spent a little more time visiting, and then headed home, with everyone thoroughly exhausted.
