Marin's Baptism

Marin's baptism was a small but lovely family affair on Father's Day/Holy Trinity Sunday. She was exactly two weeks old (sorry some of these are sideways)

Fr. Tom did a great job of involving Cora and Annaliese in the baptism. Cora held the oil.

Annaliese held the Holy Water

Getting some Holy Water to bless ourselves

Marin was alert throughout the entire ceremony and didn't cry once.

Our family, minus photographer Grandpa Dan.

We're so grateful to everyone who made it to this, but we certainly missed my dad, PaPa Pat, Aunt Ann-Renee, Uncle Bill, Will T., Uncle David, Raine and great aunts, Mary Jo and Mags. However, we understand that all of these people have MAJOR life events they're juggling and it just wasn't possible to get everyone together this time. Chris and I appreciate the beautiful cards you sent and warm wishes for Marin.

My extraordinary mother, who cleaned my house and did most of the meal prep for the baptism party.
How do I ever thank you enough, Mom, for all you did??? xoxo
