You're a Little Christian Now!

We celebrated Merrill's baptism on Mother's Day. At 10 months old, Shannon and Scott were sure Merrill would be the oldest baby there. Turns out she was the youngest and by far the cutest :) The other family that participated had their three children ages 6, 4, and 2 baptized. Merrill was super enthusiastic about joining the Catholic church and smiled and laughed through the whole ceremony! Afterwards Shannon and Scott hosted everyone for a delicious baptism/Mother's day lunch. It was a great way for us to spend Mother's Day with my family and I know my mom enjoyed having her whole family together. After lunch we headed to St. Charles to celebrate with Jason's mom and the Griesenauer clan -always a good time with lots of good food!

Merrill and Daddy

Merrill and Brandon, her Godfather

Love this picture of Millie that Jason took

Merrill didn't mind having the holy water dumped on her head at all!

It did make for an interesting hair do for the rest of the day though :)
