A Kawa Update...

She is growing up so fast!  We are loving having her in our family.  Her quirky personality, that boxers each to their own have, is forming more and more each day.  

Andy took these pictures of her the other morning. 

See...we are loving having her here, if I can say so, I think she's loving it too!

Harry's First Communion!

This celebration has been a long time coming.  He has been studying hard all year long, & enjoying every bit of it.  We all have learned more, and as a family are so very proud of him!

 Andy quick, snapped these before we left, as I ran around the house making sure we had everything, camera's, video camera, tissues....

 Right as we were about to leave, Harry yelled from the truck "Don't forget my fedora!". My brain was all over the place, so it took me a few seconds, "fedora?".......Ohhh, fedora, your hat.  :)

 Waiting, saving seats...

 There he is!!  Boy oh boy did the girls, er Mama's, go ALL out! a whole lot of the dresses were made from their wedding gowns, the girls compaired their sparkles, jewelry, veils...the boys, well, they just waited until it was time to go into church.

 Kids were so happy to have their cousin at their church, along with their Aunt & Uncle, Grandma & Grandpa, and Mema & Papa!

 HIiii my darling!!

Look how old our baby looks!  I have a feeling I will be saying that my whole life! (front row, second from the left.  Just waiting for everyone to be placed to have their group photo taken)

 Father Bill on the left and Father Mike on his right. 

They sure are blessed at what they do. Fr.Bill used to be an elem.principal, and sure is funny, makes you feel right at home.  Fr.Mike was an elem. teacher, he too made/makes everyone feel welcome.

 This was a celebration at school.  Their school encompasses 5-6 different churches, so this they make Thursday Mass a special one for them. (they changed back into school uniform after this...much to the comfort of the Moms, especially the ones of daughters!)

Harry & his friend Samuel

Harry & his friend Jack.

Can't believe it!  Only a week and a half left of school.  Seems like after Christmas the year zooms by!  Along with that the last few weeks are jam packed with fun activities for the kids...making the days go by that much faster!

(sure can tell when Andy posts & when I do! His, short & sweet, mine, just can't decide which photos should stay and which should go)       :)
