Baptism

The boys were baptized on Sunday at St. Ann's. Even though the weather was really bad a lot of our family came out for it. Thank u for braving the snow!



Ben's gown was made by my grandma and worn by my Mom, sister, and myself. Sam's gown was made by Matt's mom and had beads from her wedding dress on it. They both were very special and beautiful. The boys can pass them down to their kids!

Jamie and Dale and my Mom and Dad were the boys godparents. They did a great job and full filled all their godparent duties :) It was especially wonderful to have Jamie as their godmother since she helped bring these little miracles into this world. We are so blessed to have them and thank God everyday that they are in our lives!

The priest who baptized them, Fr. Keith, was a twin too - so that was pretty cool!

Aunt Jamie (isn't she so pretty!) and a sleeping Ben. Ben was sleeping most of the baptism and Sam was looking all around and just got a little fussy at the end.

My side of the family:
We had more people celebrate with us afterwards at a party at our house. We had egg casseroles, fruit, croissants, muffins, cupcakes, cake, and mimosas...and of course pop! It was a really special day for our new little family.

I also started back to work this week. More to come about that later.....
