Baptism

Another big day for Nora! On Sunday, January 9th she was baptized at St. Mark's in Waukesha by Pastor Wilch. There were quite a few members of the family that made the trip to celebrate with us, some of whom met Nora for the first time. Especially notable was the visit of Nora's second cousins Ethan and Logan, who were born just a few weeks ago, and Nora's uncle Drew who flew up from Phoenix to join us.

Nora's gown was originally worn by her great-grandpa Maxwell at his baptism in 1912. She was very quiet throughout the service and didn't seem to mind getting her head wet! She had a great time hanging out with her new godparents, Tracy and Marjorie, after the service.

It was very special to see so many of our friends and family come out to join us in the celebration.
