Per Madison's requests, Sean smoked ribs on the grill for us Saturday evening and we ordered a large cookie cake from Insomnia Cookies. Once done enjoying our meal, the girls headed out to do a little shopping :)
Sunday was the big day. Mass wasn't until 2pm so we had plenty of time to get ready. My heart just melted looking at Madison and realizing how she's turning into a beautiful young lady. I'm so used to her wearing sweats and t-shirts that it kind of took me by surprise after seeing her dressed up AND with her hair done.
Mass was absolutely amazing! I'm no good with words, but I felt so proud and overjoyed watching Madison with her confirmation class, Noah helping serve mass with Bishop Jenky and just everything about that day.

| Noah and his friend, Kyle, were able to serve at Confirmation mass and were the Crosier Bearer & Miter Bearer. Such a special memory for them! |

| Sean wanted in one of the pics since Grandma Helen is his sponsor from 11 years ago! |
Here's a cute picture of the cousins and Summer waiting for mass to begin.
Thanks to a few friends that took pictures of our kids before mass. I snatched a couple from their Facebook pages :) Below are pictures of the whole 8th grade Epiphany class and one of just the girls.
I'm so happy that Madison has been able to rejoin her classmates from the last four years to finish up her 8th grade year and share these special moments with her friends. It's been such a blessing.
We love you Madison and your dad and I are so proud to be your parents!
