Baptism

On Sunday, March 15th Nolan was baptized at Christ Lutheran Church in Charlotte, NC. It went really well! Nolan went to the pastor (Scott) with no trouble. When Scott started sprinkling water on his head Nolan acted like everything was cool. I figure he associated it with bath time. We got a baptism certificate and a baptism candle; we're supposed to light the candle every year on March 15th and have a commemorative dinner and recognize the special day.

After the church service my mother-in-law, Toni, had a special luncheon for Nolan. It was so fun. The adults enjoyed conversing and eating while Nolan and his cousins were running in and out of everyone's legs. We had mini-sandwich's, strawberries, pineapple and veggies marinated in italian dressing--delicious! For desert, my mom made an amazing chocolate cake topped with almonds and chocolate icing. I love having my family and Rich's family together. We're so lucky everyone gets along so well!

There are so many amazing pictures from the luncheon, but I'll only post a few. The pictures are as follows: our family; Nolan with his godparents; Nolan with Rich and Uncle Mike. Thank you to everyone who made Nolan's day so speical.
