    What a super GMA to do all that work for your DGS. I'd like a loaf of each please!!! The CP's were gorgeous.

    Sounds like a beautiful day even if the weather did not cooperate.

    Congratulations to Michael and kudos to you for a job well done.

    Congrats to your gr'son & family! Precious time of life ...beautiful photos!

    What a great idea using those hanging potted plants for centerpcs & adding a little bling to them! Nice gifts!

    Everything just looks fantastic, Kathleen...the candy bags for the kids & even thinking of those w/braces! ;-)

    I am in awe of your baked bread choices! Wow! 36 loaves!!! I bet you were wishing you could take a loaf & it would 'multiply,' uh! Such a special day! TFS it! Jeanne S.

    God bless your DGS. First Holy Communion is such an important event in his young life!
    Gosh Kathleen you sure were busy!! The breads sound wonderful, I can almost smell them from here.
    Do you have more than one oven?

    What a wonderful celebration, and such a handsum GS. I know you must be very proud of him. Everything looks beautiful, the flowers, the bread, the treat bags. You have been one busy GM. I would have never thought of putting the bsby's breath in the hanging baskets, but it is perfect. The kids all dressed up for their first communion are so precious. Thanks for sharing this special day with us. Janet

    Glad I got to see it now though.
    I love seeing children dressed all up for their
    communions..so angelic!
    You really outdid yourself with so many thoughtful touches.
    Love the floral arrangements and take home breads - even
    the Goodie Bags for the kids...you thought of everything!
    What a wonderful DGM.
    I'm sure they'll always remember the wonderful things you did to make ea occasion special.
