The Easter Parade

Wow, what a fantastic weekend! We had Jack christened over Easter and our amazing family traveled great distances to attend the big event.  We celebrated in a big way with lots beer, wine and of course, Mexican food.  John and I feel really blessed to have such a loving and generous family.  Jack had a blast playing with all of the grandparents, aunts, uncles and cousins.  Here are some pictures at the church before the Christening. We had him christened at the 8 pm Easter Vigil service and it was just beautiful.  

Jack and his proud parents

What a good lookin' family :-)

More giggling :-)  Jack was some delirious at this point being that it was about 3 hours past his bed time.  What a trooper!
I had to add this photo.  Jack adores salsa.  I know it sounds crazy, but the kid just digs it.  He will put a big bite of spicy salsa in his mouth, tear up, make a crazy face, and then go back for more with out hesitating.  We have tried to stop him for fear that his stomach might pay a price.  But thus far, he has really handled it well.  Here he is digging into the salsa at dinner before his baptism.

Family trip to Fonda san Miguel for Easter brunch...yummy!
