Claire turned 8 this past week. We decided to go to St. Louis for her baptism so her great-grandparents could attend. We had 34 people attend and Claire was related to all but 4 people. It was a great day!! Claire was able to wear the dress that I was baptized in and also my mom and sister. It fit her perfectly. After the baptism, we went to my mom's house for some yummy food!! It was great to be with all of our family.

Congrats, little Claire!!! We can't believe that you are 8 already and it was so nice that you were able to come to St Louis so almost all of your family could share with you on this important of days for you as you entered the Kingdom of our Savior.

You looked so beautiful in the special baptism dress and so much like your Nana. The party looked wonderful and the food looked yummy as always at your Nana's home.

Carolyn, I loved all the pics but I loved the one of all your girls and it looked liked you planned your outfits to blend together. We sure missed being with you all!!!

Congrats again and we love you!
Great aunt Sue and great uncle John

Claire, I'm so impressed with your drawing. You definitely got your dad's talent. You looked adorable in the dress. Didn't I get baptized in that dress too? Congrats and happy birthday!
Love,
Lisa
