A baby's baptism

Today I was baptized at the church my dad went to when he was a little boy. For the baptism I wore a special Emens family christening gown (shown above). My great-grandfather, Francis Robert, was the first to wear this and now I was the twelfth baby to have this honor. Another interesting fact is that I also share the same birthday as my great-grandfather Frank... 95 years apart.
Here I am with my parents and my godfather, Dan McAlpine, and my godmother, my aunt Nancy.
And here we are with Father McCabe. He is a friend of my dad and Pop's and they have been friends years. Father McCabe has known my dad since he was a baby - wow, that's a LONG time!
