A Very Special Weekend


Best godparents ever!! Auntie Tammy & Uncle Tommy

Adam's family
My family


This past weekend was Eli's Christening and he did great! We couldn't get over how quite & observant he was during the ceremony. It was so funny to watch him listening so closely to the Priest almost like "Yup, I got it, keep my butt in line...!" I have to admit I did practice with Eli by taking the shower head to his face & head at the end of his bath for the week preceding this ceremony. I figured I would get him used to having water splashed in his face so maybe he wouldn't cry. I would like to think it worked :)

My sister Tammy & Adam's brother Tommy are Eli's god parents and we are so lucky to have them in our lives. Eli is surrounded by a very loving family, on Sunday we celebrated all together with a luncheon in the church hall after the ceremony. The day was a success thanks to our helpful family. It was so nice of everyone to contribute in all forms - cooking/cleaning/and helping with packing up the cars at the end of the reception.

A very special thanks to those who traveled all the way to CT for Elias's big day. It was greatly appreciated and we loved having your company.

Here are some more pictures from yesterday, enjoy!
