Baptism

Hi All,
Drew and Bree were baptized on December 19th.  We had a wonderful day with immediate family and godparents in attendance. Drew's godfather, Doug, was unable to make it from Chicago, but my brother Darren was happy to stand in. We found a great church and are really happy to be members there and to have a special place to teach Drew and Bree the ways of the Lord. Monsignor Bill and Mona made the day extra nice. Mona embroidered beautiful personalized baptismal bibs and blanket buddies for the twins. Drew and Bree were as good as can be during the baptism ceremony - hallelujah! Drew actually giggled a little when Monsignor poured the holy water over his head, which also made Monsignor laugh. We had a great Italian meal and cake following the ceremony. Overall, it was a very blessed day!
