Jan. 9 - Bangs

 Amanda wanted bangs like her sister, so I had Grandma give them to her! Whoa! So dramatic! had to go for another trim at the salon to even things up a bit but here she it!


Jan. 8 - First Reconciliation

 Natalie's First Reconciliation
Waiting her turn

 The Girls and I had a Miss America-watching party and the girls absolutely LOVED watching the show. Amanda was a big fan of Miss California, who got eliminated. She was devastated about that! But we had so much fun getting boas on and crowns and sashes....I think this will be a new tradition for my girls and I!
Natalie's Best Friend was having her First reconciliation too! Don't they look like they could be sisters?

Proud Mommy & Natalie

The kids put on a play at Grandma Diamond's!
sorry my pics are out of order....this is a picture of the Reconciliation Room door, while Natalie was in there! Oh I was so worked up for her. Nervous, proud, holding back tears. I am so proud of her taking this journey towards First Communion.
