Happiness is family: Jackson's Baptism

Today, Jackson was baptized. It was a great weekend all around. Mimi and Pop, Auntie Meggie, Uncle Josh, and Ellie came up yesterday and made a weekend out of it. We got fall decorations to make the house look festive, and Mimi brought some mums too.

We all were dressed in our finest for church, with Jackson in his gown. Grammi bought Jackson a beautiful white gown, that he decided to spit-up on a few times.

There were 6 other babies being baptized, so it wasn't a quick process. However, Jackson was GREAT!! He didn't fuss, and even slept on Mimi during the service. Emma cried a little bit, saying she wanted to go home, but Mimi took her to the back of the church and she was fine.

Father John gave a wonderful mass, and even better baptism ceremony. He commented on how his middle name is Jackson, so Jackson has a great name:)

Everyone came over to the house after the service, and Mimi, Grammi, and Aunt Laurie made a wonderful spread of food. We had to get Jackson's cake made a few times, as it wasn't made to my standards the first time.
