Claire Lindsey was baptised on Sunday, June 20th and sponsored by Marty & Jilli Worth. We are so honored to have them as Godparents for our little girl. It was a beautiful day surrounded by many friends and family!
Three Generations
The Dress
My Mom made Claire's baptism dress out of my veil and left over fabric from the flowergirl dresses from our wedding. She did this for my cousin years ago, and I always remembered how special it was. As soon as we had Claire and set the date for her baptism (basically giving her 1 week notice) I knew I wanted her to make Claire's dress. I insisted she use my wedding dress, but she could not bare the thought of cutting it up so she used my veil, shawl, and fabric all from our special day. She whipped it up in 1 day and it turned out beautiful!! I'm so grateful for her talent since I always take advantage of it :) The dress is precious and Claire was absolutely beautiful in it. I'm sure she will cherish it as much as I do when she's older. Thank you soooo much Mom, you have no idea just how much I appreciate it :)

Oh my goodness, your Mom made Claire's dress in a DAY? That is phenomenal. It is so beautiful...what a special keepsake to have (and so neat that she reused fabric from your wedding). Congratulations on Claire's baptism!
