On January 19, we baptized Madeline at St. Vincent de Paul Catholic Church in Osseo, MN. This is the same church at which we were married. Maddie was very peaceful and quiet for the whole ceremony- even when the water was poured over her head. All four grandparents were able to attend, as well as her Godparents, John & Judy Schulte, Lisa's brother Gregg, and neices Erika and Kristin Schulte. Here are a few photos from the event:

I am so glad to see the pictures of Madeline. She is so precious tell her to stay as sweet as she is now. We just had our first real snow of the year and it is so pretty. I love you all three. Grandma Mary.
Baptismal Blessings! May Madeline's faith life be graced with our Lord's love, joy and gentle compassion.
Love,
Maurita
