Amelia and Caroline's Baptism

Saturday, October 23, 2011
Christ the King Catholic Church
WaKeeney, KS

On this day we celebrated the baptism of Amelia and Caroline.  It was a beautiful day in every sense of the word.  We were surrounded by friends and family who care so much for these girls.  Royce and I know that they will grow to know and trust in God the way everyone around them does. 

Walking into church Brekkyn, Emma, and Chloe are buddies. 
Such a sweet picture!

Must have been yummy satin!

After seeing the previous pictures Chloe wanted to stand and hold a baby also.
I think Caroline knew this was uncharted territory!


Smiling Caroline


Amelia looks so curious...

...and ornery!

Pretty dresses for pretty girls.


This is one of my favorite pictures...it's like they're thinking
"Oh my goodness--what is going on here?"

I got razzed for not putting the girls in the bonnets that came with their dresses.
So Amelia modeled one for a picture.  
The day really was beautiful.  The grandmas made soups and had a great lunch for everyone after the church service.  I appreciate everybody's efforts to attend and take part in the special day for Amelia and Caroline.  We have surrounded the girls with people who are strong in their faith and I know that these girls will grow with the same confidence.

  1. I want to know if Father answered all of Chloe's questions!
