Sean's aunt Pat celebrated her 80th birthday today among family and friends. We had a scare with her health his past fall, but she pulled through and is thriving now. After we sang happy birthday she said "now I know why I'm still here." So sweet!
She's been a member of St. Christopher's for 57 years so only fitting that we started with a mass where they honored her in part of the service. Waiting for everyone to arrive....
After the mass we headed to an Italian restaurant that had been completely rented out for our every large family (remember I come from a family of 9 total - with uncle, cousins, and grandmother - so I am loving the Irish Catholic brood!). It was very much like a wedding - mass and a wonderful reception to follow!
Pat's daughters had asked us to take a picture holding one word that signified Pat to us. They made an incredible slide show with those which was so fun and touching to watch!
Finn charmed us at the party while his dad and brothers were at the Sox game.
Happy birthday Aunt Pat - we love you!!
