Allie's Baptism

Allie was baptized on Sunday, April 19th with her cousins, Cameron, Carson & Cole. It was a very special day for all of us. We had family come in from Texas, North Carolina and Pennsylvania to celebrate with us! It must have been a truly special day because even Uncle Bill went to church!

Allie was baptized by Fr. Steve Kolde, who also married us back in 2007. We were thrilled to have him be a part of our continued growth as a family. Perhaps one of the most special details of the day was Allie's dress. Nick's Aunt Janice made Allie's baptismal gown out of my wedding dress. It turned out better than I could have ever dreamed and we got so many compliments on it. I'm so glad that I now have a family heirloom rather than an old wedding dress in a box.

All in all, it was a great day with family and friends and we thank you all for celebrating with us! These are the only pics I have so if anyone has more, can you please send them to me?
