Lola becomes a Catholic!

The Lord blessed us with this child. Today, we christened her in His name. Surrounded by family and friends, Lola Rose Hernandez became a member of our Catholic faith today. It was a beautiful day sent from above. She was a perfect angel the entire day. We are the proudest parents! We hope you enjoy just a few of the countless photos captured today.

We had her dress made from my wedding dress. When John and I made the Sacrament of Marriage, we said we'd welcome with love children from God. It's only fitting that she got to wear the same dress today to receive the Sacrament of Baptism--and on the same Altar!

Again--to all our family and friends that celebrated with us today--THANK YOU! Lola is so very blessed to have each and every one of you in her life. You are all examples of the love and goodness we pray she will show to others as she grows.

Yummy cake from, you guessed it....CREATIVE CAKES

There's a story behind this...
Mom made this for Lola. It's like a scrapbook thing with
a bunch of little tidbits on it. Nana made one for me on
my christening day. So I guess you could say it's a little
tradition. We're going to hang it in her nursery. Thanks Mom!
