Allie's First Holy Communion

Allie's first holy communion was small, quaint and lovely.  She was as beautiful as ever in her white dress.  Aunt Kat took her shopping and Allie picked out the pouffiest dress she could find!  She wore a crown of flowers and veil from Nana.  Around her neck hung her silver cross from her baptism.  In her ears were new diamond hoop earring she's been asking to own (just like mine).  She carried Nana's rosary and Auntie Ellen's purse from their first holy communions.  She was a beauty.

Uncle Mark & Aunt Kat....Godparents

Leading up to Allie's first communion, she painted a special goblet in class.  Her and I made her pew sign in white and pink to hang at the end of her pew row.  Allie and her communion crew sang a song at the end of mass.

 

We all celebrated after mass with some pasta and a simple, but beautiful, pink rose-topped cake (buttercream frosting and white cake...Allie's choices).

God Bless my little girl and may Jesus forever be a part of your life, your decisions, and your future.
