Zach's party with the family

We ended up having a small party for Zach on Friday night since we planned a sleepover for his friend party.. so we did BW3 and cupcakes from Frost for dessert.  We went ahead and let him also open his big gift from us so that he could play with it on his way up to the surprise on his birthday morning plus we figured it would be easier to put up with out all his friends wanting to play on it.  We had a good time with the family and Zach ways proud of all of his gifts.

First Communion

This past weekend Zach made his First Communion.  This is something that he has worked for the past two years.  He had to learn 5 prayers, had 2 retreats with Nuns and lots and lots of practice.  But he made it through it all and made us so proud on Saturday.  Here is my announcement I made for him and a few pictures from the night.

the original had the information about the church..

Zach and his Godparents

This one is special to me because Shelly is one of my older cousin's who was always like a big sister to me since they lived down the street from me.  Well when she pregnant with Blake she asked me to be his Godmother, I was just 20 years old and I thought that was so special that she asked me to be his Godmother.  So I always knew when I had a baby she was going to be their Godmother and so when Zach was Baptised I got a picture of the 4 of us so I knew I wanted a new one.

Blake is so cute!  He loves the fact his is a head taller than me.. everyone is taller than me!!

After the service (and photos) it was on to Rudy's for some yummy BBQ and some Lindy's cake!!

We are so proud of Zachary and so happy we were able to share this special time with our family.. I'm sure there was one in Heaven with a front row seat beaming from ear to ear.
