God Bless
Well, we had a beautiful day for Audrey and Jack's baptism. It was so neat to have them baptized on the same day. Joan and Eric are Audrey's godparents and my sister Beth is Jack's godmother. Most of you know the story behind the christening gown, but here it is for those who don't and are interested. Dave's mom bought this gown right before Allyssa (Michele's oldest) was baptized. It has a slip underneath it on which all of the grandkids' names and baptism dates are embroidered! All of the 12 grandchildren have worn it and have their names on it. (Correction, Thea didn't wear it but her baptismal information is on it.) Its so cool to see how it has gone from having just one name on it, to 12! Not sure if there will be a number 13, but I AM sure that if there is, it WON'T be ours!
Anyhow, after church, we had a family gathering at our house. In keeping with tradition, the kids (Dave, Eric and Michele included) played a fierce game of wiffle ball. Andy, you missed it!
