The gown

This baptismal gown is so speical it has been in my grandmother's family for a very long time, my great grandmother wore this gown as did most of the babies in our family. Teresa is the first baby to wear this gown for a baptism in the Traditional Latin Rite since the change of Vatican II. It was a beautiful baptism which brought tears to my eyes, what a blessing to recieve from Our Lord.

Pumpkin Patch 2011

We have a fabulous pumpkin patch just a few miles away from us, on saturday we took a few hours to go and check it out.
The girls LOVED it and so did we, it was a true pumpkin patch that took us on a wagon ride out to the pumpkin patch to pick out our very own pumpkins. They had the cutes animals to pet and feed and the greatest props set up to take pictures... I was delighted!!

these moments are just wonderful and remind us how blessed we are, the girls were so excited and greatful for the fun they had.
