Ally's Baptism

Last weekend was amazing!  Although still recovering from a truly nasty illness, I decided I couldn't ruin Ally's big day, so on Saturday morning we hauled ourselves and a whole Pilot-load of stuff to Dallas for an overnight at Cal's, Ally's baptism and her first birthday party.

I'm still not sure it was smart, but it sure was fun.  We had a little playtime on Saturday with Papa and Michele, and they enjoyed spoiling both girls

Sunday morning, we went over to King of Glory Lutheran Church, where Carl and Caroline grew up and where Helen and Larry are members (and met!).  We were honored to be able to celebrate the sacrament of baptism there.

Making a Break for It

The baptism was performed as a private ceremony after the service.  It was so wonderful to be able to have all of our family standing up there with us for this beautiful occasion.
