joseph’s first communion

Still in the thick of communion season posting and editing, so you’ll have to excuse the shortened narrative for this post. Joseph was NOT a fan of getting his picture taken but I think we got some pretty great stuff nonetheless. I’m betting you couldn’t tell that he wasn’t thrilled with the camera in this shot though. I think he was much happier once the tie and jacket (and shoes and socks) came off.

Great looking family. Joseph faked it sooo well!His mom and aunt/godmother helping with the boutiniere. Joseph’s little brother is quite a ham for the camera. So opposite!And I couldn’t get enough of this little one’s curls. So, so cute!!When a child who doesn’t really like to get his picture taken, asks for a picture (even in the shower) you oblige. He then hid in the ottoman/blanket box to escape having to take more pictures. A good sign that I was done for a little while.So instead, you take some pictures of some pretty and willing subjects!A few immediately following the mass. And then party time!Those cupcakes never stood a chance!A few familiar faces. My favorites from the day, for sure.  Joseph, thanks for tolerating me as much as you did! Hope the rest of the party was as much fun as the part I was there for!
