wordless wednesday: first communion

after a year of sunday school classes leading up to the big event, susanna celebrated her first communion this month.  we just so happened to take a few pictures of her special morning.
susanna and her godmother lainey, who gave her a strand of pearls (real pearls!, susanna likes to remind me) that her godmother had given to her for her first communion a few decades ago

the whole group, including susanna's great-grandmother margie, who celebrated her 94th birthday the day after susanna's 7th birthday
 two items worth pointing out:  one, we finally got liam to smile in this one.  he seems to think his smile looks "awkward" -- whatever that means.  and two, please notice (and marvel at) the beautiful floral arrangement in susanna's hair, which cost more than some of the clothes we were wearing
