Weezy's Christening

On July 5th, my niece Weezy was christened at Our Lady of Bon Secour (that is deep deep in the middle of Baldwin County near Gulf Shores).

Jason, the kids and I got all dressed up, picked up our cousin Beth and headed across the bay. Thanks to Google Map, we found the place right away and then we waited, because my sister is always right on time or slightly not on time, but never early.

Danielle arrived right behind us, so we all waited together, but not for long. Herkerma and company came right on time, I was very proud.

While we waited I had time to take pictures of the beautiful little chapel and my family.


Jason said he didn't want his picture taken cause he was grumpy and I would tell everyone about it in my blog. So, I took the picture anyway.

Here he is, Mr. Grumpypants!

Of course, Owen.
The christening was very nice. Larry's parents are Wezzy's godmother and godfather.
Larry's sister was there with her husband, and their three girls. My sister's Aunt came with her husband and two sons. And some friends of Larry's came too.


Here is Weezy with Mary P. That is Larry's sister behind them.

Herkerma and Weezy with the Father.

The Father invited all the children to come up and participate. He was very sweet. He even rang the church bell for Weezy.

Owen tried to help take pictures, but really just wanted the camera bag.

After the christening, we all had lunch next door at the Tin Top (I totally recommend the Fried Green Tomatoes).

Then after a nap at Danielle's we went on to Weezy's house for Bear's 3rd birthday party. It was a combination Nemo and Cars party. Herkerma made red velvet shark cake and Nemo cookies. The kids swam and played on a blowup water slide.

It was a great day with my family.
