Yesterday Finley got baptized. It was a very special day and I am so happy to be Finley's God Mother.

Allison had me make some invitations for the special event. I think the bird really makes it "Finley."

I am sure you are wondering what this wedding picture has to do with my niece's baptism. Well, my mom had her wedding dress made into....Finley's baptismal gown.
Isn't that just the sweetest thing ever?

Kyle's brother was the God Father. And I will be honest, I totally put this picture in because I think I look tall. (That is saying a lot...I am only 5' tall.)


(I am so about to do the thing that always cracks me up when people do it, write a note to a small baby on a blog/Facebook/Social Networking site as though the infant child can read it. I am now that person.) Finley, thanks for letting me be such a big part of your special day. You are just the most precious baby and I love you tons!

  1. So cute! Not only do you look tall, Katie....but the gown is beautiful! I am pretty sure that if you could put time in a bottle, it would look just like those pictures. What a family heirloom.
