Austin's First Communion and Theo's 1st Birthday

On Saturday, April 25th we got to celebrate both Theo's 1st Birthday and Austin's Sacrament of First Holy Communion. 

We started out at Theo's house for his birthday celebration.

Here's the birthday boy with his Mommy and Daddy.

We caught a great photo of our 5 while at the birthday party and all dressed up for First Communion.

Trevor insisted he needed a party hat and had fun smiling for a photo with Austin.

 Theo had his own little cake to taste.

 After a little encouraging, he seemed to like the sweet frosting.

After opening gifts, he was all tuckered out.

Happy Birthday Theo!

Then we headed off to SACS (Austin and Sarah's School) to celebrate Austin's First Communion.   He was very excited!  Here he is showing off his banner and chalice.

The group with Fr. Eric Lundgren, the school's associate pastor who celebrated the Mass.

Austin was covered by a little girl's veil for some of the photos, but I caught one of his beautiful dimply smile peeking out.

Nanny and Grandpa were there to celebrate with us.

Auntie Trish, Auntie Jenna and Alexis shared the day with us too.

We returned home for a family dinner and got to see Aunt Jeannie and Elizabeth too.

 God Bless Austin!  We are so proud of you!
