Michael's 1st Disney Vacation!!!!

Hello Mickey Mouse!!!

Ralph, Michael and I visited Walt Disney World with our very good friends, Vicky, Keith and their 2 adorable boys, Maddux and Keith. It really was such a great vacation! Our little guy has just been all over the country (just need to get to seattle!) We visited MGM and Animal Kingdom. Michael was so good every day. The weather was good and the parks weren't too busy. It really is a whole new adventure with little kids, they were just so excited over everything. One of our best trips yet!

Michael's Beautiful Christening Day

Michael Giovanni's Christening Day

May 22, 2010

Our beautiful little boy was christened at St. Patrick's Cathedral in NYC by Father Chris. The christening was perfect! Father Chris spoke for a while on the importance of baptism and Ralph and my role as parents, christians and how we are expected to raise Michael. It was very powerful. It seemed Michael was listening so intently, he was watching Father Chris walk back and forth and was as quiet as a mouse...except when he was baptized with the water...he screamed his little heart out! After the christening, we all headed back home for a great party!

Godparents- Keith and Kim with our little guy!
