Baptism

Ellie was baptised this past Sunday the 28th. It is a bit late considering she is 5 months old, but it was difficult to get both Godparents in DBQ with Aundrea being so far away and Eric's busy wrestling schedule. She was baptized after mass with 3 other kids. She was actually the youngest baby, which surprised me considering we waited so long. Ellie was lucky enough to wear the same baptismal gown that Jeremy wore when he was baptised! It was handmade by his great grandmother (I think that I have this right) and worn by a few other people in the family including Eric. It is a beautiful gown! The pictures don't quite do it justice.

Thank you to everyone who was a part of Ellie's day. Especially her Godparents, Eric and Aundrea! We thank you for agreeing to be such a special person in Ellie's life. You are the best Godparents around!
