The weekend of June 20 we headed to southern Illinois to visit family and have Haddie Rose baptized. On Friday we went to Grant's Farm...the kids had fun, but it was a little warm and humid....gotta love that St Louis humidity!
Feeding the goats sounded like a great idea...hence the smiles....but when it came time to go in with the goats there were quick screams and tears....feeding them from the outside seemed to go A LOT better....
Notice his pouty lip
Which was turned into a smile once he got out of the goat pen....
A fun ride on the carousel...
Quite possibly their favorite part....the mister fans
Lunch and FREE beer....
On Saturday, June 21, Haddie was baptized at our family church in Belleville....St Teresa's. The day was beautiful and of course, she was so good. Her great-grandma made her this adorable outfit....and of course the baptismal gown too (which was my mom and grandmother's wedding dress, and each of the boys wore it as well)
We tried to get a quick shot of the 3...but someone is always not looking or making a silly face :)
Marshall wanted one with just his sister
The ceremony---we were blessed to be surrounded by our family
They were thrilled....
Not even a little cry while the priest pored the water on her head..she actually smiled
My cousin Louis is the godfather and Ashely stood in for Natalie (Aaron's sister) who is the godmother...this little lady is in good hands with these families
The grandparents
4 generations
Tried to capture a quick one of her in her gown
A few family shots before we headed back North....a little one was not cooperating...as you will see....
