God Bless Lily

On September 23 we christened Lily May at St. Mark's Church in Sea Girt. 

This church is where Tony and I were married and where Gracie was baptized as well.

It feels so nice to be in that church because of some of the happiest moments in our lives happened there. We choose Sue and Ron as Lily's Godparents. This is Sue's first Godchild so I know it means a lot to her. Sue and Ron are so great to our children and really are such special people in their lives. 

We know that they will be very present in Lily's life and were happy to have them share in this special day.

 Lily wore my baptism dress which is 30 years old!! 

Grace wore the same dress. 

I hope I can pass it down to their children one day.

 I got these shoes made on ETSY

They were so beautiful for the day. On the bottom of the other foot was a pink cross.

God Bless You Always Lily May

 Colin!!! God I love him... He just makes me smile so much whenever I see him.

 The proud Daddy. 

 Love this pic!!!! My happy family. 

Grace loves her sister so much. They have such a strong bond already

 I love this picture too. 

I'm laughing so much because Grace is so scared of Ron (well any man) and she realized he was

next to her and she turned her head so quickly. She would not even look at him. I know she will grow out of this but it's just comical. She's seen him a million times and will not even talk to him. 

She's so shy...

 Our Christened Baby.. What a happy day for us!
