When it came time to plan Everleigh's baptism, a few things were certain.
1. We were going to have it in the valley with a private service in Brownsville
2. My brother Omar and sister in law Christi were going to be Everleigh's Godparents
3. Because I'm Addie's Godmother, I wanted Everleigh to wear Addie's baptismal dress
(blog post on Addie's baptism HERE)
4. and lastly I wanted to work our trip around Addie's birthday weekend so we could ensure Chad would be able to join in on the fun as well. ;)
The day couldn't have gone more smoothly. Aside from the church being RIDICULOUSLY hot when we first arrived... It was a beautiful ceremony...short and sweet....with a family priest friend presiding over her baptism. Everleigh cooperated, not a whimper, not a peep...just sheer curiosity about the events happening around her. She was a perfect angel. So proud of my bear.. :)
