Yesterday was a busy day. My son had his 1st Communion. I am so proud of my sweet boy and he looked so handsome. It seems like just yesterday he was getting baptized. Time really goes by so quickly and they grow up so fast. I realized this yesterday as my son was up on the alter at church. I was completely overwhelmed by my love for my boys and how very blessed I am to have them. Here's my sweet little Carter Boo in his suit. Is he handsome, or what?!
We had our family come back to my house after church to celebrate his 1st Communion and Mother's Day. Things didn't go as smoothly as I had planned when Carter fell on the front porch steps and cut his knee. So.... he had his 1st Communion and his 1st stitches all in one day. Sounds like a scrapbook title doesn't it..... hee hee. He was a trouper though and we still celebrated - it was just after our trip to urgent care!
I've been busy scrapping between the Let's Scrap Blog Hop going on and the new sketches and challenges. Be sure to come check it all out and join in on the fun!!
