Saturday was a very special day for Jake and I as we baptized Carrine Faith Celestine.
Carrine wore the baptismal gown that my Grandma Catherine crocheted for me 32 years ago. All three of our kids wore this gown. My Gram also crocheted the beautiful circle blanket for our kids, very special.
Jake's aunt, Sister Perpetua Stang, crocheted this baptismal gown for the great nieces and nephews to wear.
My Gram bought these adorable pink star shoes for Roslyn when she was born. So thankful both girls could wear these shoes for their baptisms!
Our Family of FIVE - so thankful!
Jake wore his Gpa Andy's tie for baptism - Gpa Andy was missed on Saturday, he is always remembered!
GODPARENTS
Godparents play such a special role in a child's life - Thank you to John and Rachel for accepting to be Carrine's Godparents - she is one Lucky Lil' Lady!
John and Rachel gave Carrine this beautiful little bracelet - a very special "keep sake!"
Godmothers are so special to little girls - thank you Rachel!
Carrine and her older cousin Emery are just 5 months apart.

Was a perfect day for baptism.
Pure joy...
So thankful Andray and Roslyn could be on the altar with us to baptize Baby Carrine...something they will never forget.
Thank you to Father Bob for baptizing Carrine...he's the best!
