Molly's Christening

Molly was christened at our church at the end of July. Some family members took pictures on their cameras during the ceremony since I didn't have time to take pictures while we were there. However, I did take some pictures of Molly in her gown the day after the ceremony. She was christened in the same gown that I wore for my christening. For some reason, getting a decent picture was MUCH more difficult than I expected...Here are a few of the pictures of my attempts:

and then finally a successful one.

One memorable part of the ceremony happened when the minister was asking whether we, as Molly's family members, promise to support her as she grows in her faith. We had to respond "we will" to several of his questions. However, after about 3 or 4 questions, Bo decided that it was time to draw attention to himself by answering "I won't" to one of the questions loud enough for the whole congregation to hear it over the minister's microphone. Leave it up to her big brother to steal the attention away from little Molly on her special day. :)
