Claire's six month birthday on July 23rd was extra-special because she celebrated her baptism at the Chapel of the Sacred Heart (where Mommy and Daddy got married 2 days shy of 2 years ago). Father Reckker, who married us, flew out from Michigan to perform the ceremony. It was so personal and special, exactly what we wanted. To boot, the baby of the hour behaved perfectly; she was all smiles and giggles and seemed to be having a blast. Claire was surrounded by both sets of grandparents, uncles, aunts, cousins, great-uncles and great-aunts, and wonderful friends. Aunt Abigail is her Godmother and Uncle Matt is her Godfather. Afterward, we celebrated with lunch at Signal Mountain and an afternoon on Moran Bay (thanks to Uncle Johnny's boat). What a beautiful, joyous day!
