In May, Grandma Sally flew into Oregon to spend some time with the family and to participate in Owen's First Communion. The weather cooperated, and Sally had her first sunny visit since we moved from San Diego. We started the weekend with a trip to the Oregon Gardens, where things were still in spring bloom.
Owen worked all year to prepare for his First Communion. Part of the preparation was going with me to the mall to get his first suit and tie. Only one of us was excited about that part (hint: it wasn't Owen). He looked so handsome! He did everything that they had practiced perfectly- and was the first one up from his class. He wasn't fully prepared for the taste of the wine- it will be a while before he accepts wine again. Clarissa from Zion was also in his Communion class- she's standing in front of him with the black hair. We returned home afterward for cake and snacks. It was wonderful to be able to share the day with Owen's Godmother Sally!
