Roslyn's Holy Baptism



Roslyn Ann was baptised on July 11th, and it was a beautiful day, ceremony and gathering of family. We were very excited to baptise her and were so happy that our immediate families could make it home for the special ocassion. Enjoy the photos!







This is the blanket that Jake's aunt, Sister Perpetua Stang, crocheted for all the Stang great nieces and nephews to be baptised in. The baptismal gown is what Jake wore 27 years ago for his baptism. Although Roslyn didn't wear his gown for the actual baptism, I just had to get a photo of her in it. She was so pretty!

My grandma Catherine made another beautiful circle blanket for Roslyn to have. This is the baptismal gown that my grandma made for me to wear 28 years ago, Andray wore this gown and now Roslyn got to wear it. Gram was very proud to see a great grandchild baptised in the gown. It was very special.


Thanks Gram for making Roslyn her own special blanket, what a true treasure! We love you!





Roslyn is very lucky to have Uncle Aaron and Auntie Rhonda as her Godparents. Hard to believe just 3 days later Rhonda gave birth to Baby Neely!



Andray loves his baby sister so much!



Jake and I just thank God every day for our two beautiful and healthy kids. We really are lucky to have what we have and are truly thankful.



Jake's great aunt Sister Mary Bernerd Stang (an aunt to Jake's Gpa Andy) was able to make it to the baptism, so there were 5 generations of Stangs there...Sister Mary Bernerd Stang, Gpa Andy, Steve, Jake and Andray/Roslyn. Pretty special!

Roslyn loves her Godmom! Thanks Rhonda for all you do for us!



What a special sacrament, Baptism. We are so thankful Father Bob could do the mass and that the weather was nice. We probably had the best day in July for Baptism, the sky was beautiful.
