Gosh, it has been a long time since I have blogged (sorry). 2 weeks ago (wow, I am behind!), Jon's cousin's little one, Everett, was baptized. So, instead of watching the beginning of the Super Bowl, we watched Everett get sprinkled. It was a precious ceremony! Little Everett was dressed in a VERY old christening gown. I think it was mentioned that it was 105 years old! Plus generations of Lisa's family has worn it. I thought that was a great way to keep his heritage alive!
After the ceremony, Matt and Lisa invited everyone back to their house for dinner. They barbecued and I got to hold Everett for awhile, which I think was one of my most favorite parts (thanks Lisa!). Most of the guys sat around and watched the football game (I must admit, I was rooting for the Saints. . . I watched the last 10 minutes). The kids got to take advantage of the first non-rainy day in awhile and played in the backyard. It was fun to see them all running around.
Thanks Matt and Lisa for letting us join you on Everett's special day!
