A Holy Baptism

We were very proud to have Marcella Claire baptized this past Saturday. My folks are in town and we had a lovely reception to honor our Daughter.

What a smile!!! (her, not me, ha-haha)

The Christening Gown

Also worn by Madeline on her special day, this 100+ year old gown was once worn by my maternal grandfather. Special thanks to my mother's cousin, Maryanne, for loaning it to us. It is beautiful and I cherish the fact that my baby girls were each baptized while wearing it.
