Weekend --continued--

More pictures of Juliana's First Communion on saturday.

Juliana with her BFF Elena.
Auntie Meara said she wouldn't miss Juliana's special day. It means so much to me when my friends are so important in my children's lives. Words just can not explain. Of course, Juliana doted on Auntie Meara quite a bit.
My brother Patrick, me, my mom, and of course, Juliana.
Grampy, Daddy, Nana, me, Uncle Kyle, and of course, the two kiddos too.
Our visit with Nana, Grampy, and Uncle Kyle was short, but sweet. They arrived about noon on May 6th, Jason's birthday. Even though the visit was short they were able to spend Jason's birthday here, First Communion, and even all day on Mother's Day. They left late last night to head back to the other coast. I did not snap any other pictures during the visit. We were too busy eating, playing tennis, taking walks, riding bikes, or organizing for the little events going on this weekend. We had fun though.

My mom does not read this blog, but if for some freak chance she will, I want the world (or the 8 readers of this blog) to know that NOTHING would have been done without her last week. It was because of her that the kids were taken to school, picked up, taken to tennis, soccer, and Lord knows what else they did. It was because of her that the gathering after First Communion was so fabulous. And it is because of her that during this loooooooong trial for jury duty, that Jason can still work, and neither of us have to worry about the kids whatsoever. She is giving up a mini-vacation to Mount Rushmore with friends to be with us this week. Ok, so South Dakota doesn't sound all that interesting, but I know it is a place she has always wanted to go, and she's giving it up for us. THANKS MOM!!!!
