The Girls Get Baptized!





After months of planning to come up with the best time for all of the family to be here, the girls got baptized a day before their first birthday. Thanks to Maria, we had a private ceremony at Holy Spirit Church in Fairfield. Fr. Lito performed a beautiful ceremony and the girls did really well. Gracie didn't make a peep! Addison cried when the very cold water ran down her head, but it was a quick second. And let me say it was ice cold. Dad tested it and burr! We are happy that the girls are finally baptized. Thanks Vanessa, Lisa, and Eric for being their godparents. We have faith in all of you...for life!! After the ceremony we headed to Chuck E. Cheese. We got there early and to our surprise the place was packed and it took us a while to find a few tables. But we enjoyed each other's company, ate pizza, and the adults had a great time playing ski ball. Yes, it was more for the adults but Gracie and Addison did enjoy the train ride.

Gracie and Addison Turn 1!





Well, we made it! On Sunday, April 6th, Gracie and Addison turned one! Mommy had this thing planned for about 10 months, and Daddy would just laugh at her. But it arrived, and Hawkins Park was where we had the fiesta. Unfortunately the wind was blowing quite strong, but we made it a success anyway. We had a ton of food. Mix that with family and great friends, what more could we ask for! Thanks to all who helped out (you know who you are). We are thrilled with our two beautiful girls, and all that they have accomplished in their first year of life. Happy Birthday Miss Gracie Ann and Miss Addison Marie.
