Congratulations on your First Holy Communion Lexi! You looked beautiful today and we are SO proud of you. 
Today Lexi received her First Holy Communion at St. Gabriel's Church in Neenah. The children had a choice of four services to receive the sacrament and at the service Lexi chose today there were 14 others that joined her.
The children were asked to make banners with their parents and they were displayed at the end of the pews today.
Lexi walking in to church this morning. On her special day she wanted me to straighten her hair, so we got up at 6:30 this morning and got rid of her "Lexi curls."
Lexi was asked to do the first reading. She was really nervous but did a great job.

Lexi also had her first communion with her good friend Alec Bartz. His parents, Jenny and Todd, are childhood friends of ours so it was nice they were able to be in the same class.
You will notice that Lexi was wearing a locket in all of the photos. She was given this locket by her great-great Aunt Verna last weekend. She said Lexi's Nana (Great-Grandma Hamm) had given it to her (they are sisters) for her confirmation 62 years ago and now she was passing it on to Lexi. It was a very nice sentimental gift.

After church the Radies/Schmidt clan went to a restaurant for lunch. We combined our little get together with the Bartz/Cerveny clan. Lexi and some of her friends at the "kid table."
