Christening

How wonderful are our life and our family!  Our girls were baptized on July 1 and so many people were there to celebrate with us.  There were many who wished they could be there, and we felt their love from a distance, and there are those who were with us in spirit and we felt their love from Heaven all around us.

Samantha Jean's godparents are Dani Klein, Karen's best friend from middle school who has been such a help to us, and Mike, Karen's brother.  Catherine Louise's godparents are Karen's two cousins, Dan and Christine.



Catherine and Samantha held by their Godfathers.

Proud parents, grandparents, and great-grandma.

Catherine up close and personal (such a flirt!)

Samantha looking adorable.

And then we all went to Maggiano's and ate too much food!  Like my dad said, it was so nice for the family to get together for good reasons.  We had picnics, family BBQs, my uncle's Change of Command at Ft. Bragg, more family dinners, and the Christening.  We are truly blessed.

More pictures online, check out Karen's facebook page for the link or e-mail her.  More updates on how the girls are doing next week.
