God Bless Melina

We kicked off our St. Patrick's Day weekend celebration with Melina's baptism. It was a small, beautiful ceremony with our friends and family. Mike and I feel extremely blessed to have a wonderful relationship with our pastor.

Melina slept peacefully in the arms of her godfather, Uncle Steve, as her godmothers, Aunt Kelly and Aunt Cheryl, stood close. Father Jerry did such a wonderful job incorporating Miles into the ceremony — Miles is still talking about how her poured water over her head.

Melina wore the same baptismal gown that Miles did — it was made by Nana Roberts out of my wedding gown. She also wore my baptismal shoes and my Great Aunt Nancy's rosary from Ireland (had to bring the Irish heritage in).
