Happy Feast of the Assumption!

Today was a big day for our family, we celebrated the feast of the Assumption of the Blessed Virgin Mary by having a sort of kind of family reunion. We didn't plan this family reunion, but it certainly felt like one. My parents had moved here from California, my brother, Albert and his family came last Saturday from California and Father Miguel spent a day with all of us. We had a private Mass celebrated by Father Miguel in the Friary chapel, we took our family photo, we played tennis a little bit . . . we laughed a lot! It was definitely a day to remember for a long time.
Taking the family photo was so much fun. Imagine, trying to make Abigail smile, it was very hard! This is by the way coming from a two year old that always goes around the house looking cute asking her mommy or daddy to take a picture of her while she has the biggest smile on her face. It was easier to make Father Miguel laugh then Abigail to smile. But we did it, I think we cracked a smile out of Abigail in maybe two of the shots!
