We enjoyed the most wonderful (and jam-packed!) weekend in early October, celebrating the Little Mister’s baptism (Oct. 7).  The event was made extra special because we were joined by many of our family and friends, including the Little Guy’s Godparents, Aunt Ashley and Uncle Joe (plus Haley and Emily, cousins-extraordinaire)!

And we were blessed to be able to have our sweet Little Mister baptized at All Saints Church by our pastors and dear friends, Thomas and Brad.  I was nervous that my Little Mr. Sensitive would cry during the ceremony, but he was a (Little) Angel!  He was totally serene and relaxed throughout, as if he understood what a momentous occasion it was…

The baptism was the creme filling of one great-big-family-party-cookie!  We had a blast hanging out with Nena, Pops, Aunt Ashley, Uncle Joe, Haley, and Emily from the Plaxico side…

And ALL of the grandparents, aunts, uncles, and cousins from the Wright side!  …That’s Poppy, Grammie, Uncle Paul, Aunt Courtney, Uncle Adam, Aunt Erin, Uncle Jon, Aunt Laura, and Cousins Ethan, Luke, and Madeline.

And the Little Miss was tickled pink to be given the “princess treatment” by her older cousins, Haley and Emily!

 

Suffice to say, it was a fun, crazy, busy, BLESSED weekend.  Praise God for great family, great friends, and sweet Little Boys!

We love you, Elliott Michael!

(We are so grateful to Nena and Pops for helping us host this crazy-fun weekend.  And we can’t thank our friends, Josh and Cristen, enough for taking photos of the baptism and for hosting some of our family while they were in town.  You guys are the best!!!)
