Tripp was Baptized on Mother's Day, May 10th and the picture below was before the service just after I got him in his gown. The Christening gown is a Denning/Hays Family heirloom made by Tripp's Great Grandmother's mother and is over 50 years old!!! This is the gown that DJ, Dustin, Walker and now Tripp (plus all of the Hays siblings and cousins) have worn. It is absolutely gorgeous and so special because of the family history behind it. Since it is so sacred in the family, I was a nervous wreck putting it on, hoping not to tear the seams as it is so delicate. Tripp also kept putting those fingers in his mouth as you can see which didn't make it any easier!
The next picture was taken after the ceremony. Uncle Dustin is Tripp's Godfather and we couldn't be happier. He is a wonderful uncle and we know that Tripp will adore his uncle (and Godfather) as much as Walker does!
This last picture is of us and Great Grandmother and Grandad Hays. It is her mother that made the Christening gown and they are the best Great Grandparents!!!
