Kate's Baptism

It was a beautiful Sunday when Kate was baptised. Kate has been blessed with wonderful godparents- Craig and Gayle, wonderful family and friends and the love of Jesus Christ.

A few days before the big day, we were trying to explain to Grace what was going to happen to Kate. Jack told her simply that Grace was going to "become friends with Jesus." Poor Grace burst into tears, crying "I don't Kate to live with Jesus, I want her to live with us." We explained it a little differently and Grace was finally convinced Kate was going to come home. Grace was excited about the day but unfortunately got sick during the ceremony. Our very good friend Stephanie was very kind to take her home and care for her while we celebrated the day with Kate. Here are the pictures from the very special day!Gayle and Craig getting Kate dressed. The dress was the same that Grace and Isabella wore on their baptism. My mom made it from her own wedding dress so it is very special.

Grace helped set up for the party before the baptism. Here is her "contribution." She was very excited to lay out the confetti on the tables ;o)
