On March 3rd, Margo was baptized into the Catholic church. Grandma and Grandpa are her Godparents so we made the trip to Indiana for the occasion. Flights are pricey from NWA so we decided to drive and make a stop in St. Louis to break up the trip. The girls did excellent in the car but we drove through some big storms that made the drive a little stressful.
As usual, we had a great time visiting with family. The baptism went well but Margo was sleepy and cried through most of the ceremony. The oil that dripped in her eye didn't help, either. I also forgot to get a picture of her in the baptism gown on that day so we tried again when she was in a better mood later that week. Here are pictures from our visit.

Margo's Godparents/Grandparents. We're grateful for the special role they'll play in her life.
Margo with Great Grandma Will. Unfortunately by this point, she was past the point of tired.
Sweet baby girl. The gown was made by my Mom when my oldest sister was baptized and we've all worn it. She made the bonnet out of a handkerchief just for Margo.
Paige and Margo loved spending time with Grandma and Grandpa.

Margo must have been playing hard.
Paige had a blast driving the new car at Grandma and Grandpa's. Stay off the roads; she doesn't know how to steer!
Just hanging with the girls.
Fun with Lucy and Oliver on our way back home.
