This weekend was truly special. Gabby received her First Holy Communion Saturday evening. She was blessed to have 15 family members in attendance for this important day. She looked beautiful! She was excited and nervous most of the day, but did a great job during Mass and receiving the Blessed Sacrament. We celebrated this milestone with a delicious dinner at a local restaurant and hosting Sunday brunch at our place before everyone left town. I took several photos throughout the day but here is a small portion:

After Mass, we had a dinner at Ti Amo Ristorante in one of their private rooms. It was a great dinner and evening with family celebrating a very special little girl and the big step she took in her faith journey.
It's hard to believe our sweet Gabby received her First Holy Communion. Time really goes by quickly. We feel so blessed that our families were able to make it...several traveling great distances to be there. Gabby is fortunate to have the love of so many special people in her life.
