My sister and I decided that it would be a good idea to try to coordinate the baptisms of our newest children since most likely we would want all of the same people to be there. We figured this would minimize the travel for everyone, and we would all get to be together for the special events. To make things even more efficient we decided that we would try to schedule the baptisms for the evening before we left for our vacation at the beach in Florida. Since my sister lives in Florida she organized with the priest at her church to perform the baptisms after the Saturday evening mass on June 5th. With a lot of organization and work on her part everything was settled, and we had both of the kids baptized together. It was a really special event and we were really lucky and happy to all get to be together.

The "Happy Hookers" ministry at Kara's church made blankets for each of the kids. Here is Jack with his.
