Resolution 1: Be Christened

The first of Tripp's 12 resolutions for 2012 was checked off the list recently.  On January 28, 2012, he was christened at the Cathedral Church of the Advent in Birmingham, Alabama.  The day was beautiful, weather was perfect, and Tripp was well behaved for most of the day... with a few exceptions.  Below are a few snapshots that my friend, Mary Margaret Rogoff, took of Tripp's special day.

After the service, Tripp slipped into something more comfortable and family and friends joined us at Shug & Papa Ferguson's house for a luncheon celebration.  We feasted on lots of good food, sipped on bloody marys, and enjoyed the Spring-like January day.
