It was a special day not only because Cora was getting baptized into the Catholic Church, but also because she was being introduced to the rest of our family. Just like Dylan and Amelia, Cora wore the same Christening gown that I did as a baby and the same overcoat to the gown that Eric wore when he was baptized. My sister, Carrie, and Eric's brother, Tim are her Godparents. Almost ten years ago, Tim and Carrie stood by our side in this same church as our best man and maid of honor as we were married. It was a special day indeed!
Dylan seeing his cousin, Reed after 6 months! Pure excitement and love!

My blue eyed girl is so precious!
My favorite part was that Dylan and Amelia stood with us during the ceremony.
They were excited to see their baby sister get baptized.
Cora did not make a peep the entire time. She was a perfect angel!

Vivienne was such a great help with the kids!
Brooks wanted to be with the big boys too!

Cora is wearing the same Christening gown I wore when they held me at my baptism 33 years ago.
Cora was welcomed into the church family with such a wonderful day full of celebration!
Cora met 55 new faces on this day!
