Ben's Baptism

A few weeks back, we celebrated Ben's Baptism.  In the days leading up to the event, I nearly had a stroke because the priest called with less than 48 hours notice and tried to cancel on us because he had only just realized that the baptism was set to take place the day before Palm Sunday.  With a little persuasion and a few phone calls to all of our wonderful family, we were able to reschedule for an earlier time and everything went off with just a few hiccups.  Nonetheless, it was a day to be celebrated, and we are so proud of our Ben.

Here are a few pictures, more may be coming if I can figure out how to get them off my email (I am seriously technologically challenged sometimes...):

A big thanks to everyone who came to support us and Ben, and for changing your plans last minute to accommodate the changes at the church!  We so appreciate it.
