The dress

So today we finally got to celebrate Claire. Yes, we do celebrate her every day. But today was special. Since we didn't get to have the traditional post-baptism dinner, we took our families to brunch today to celebrate Claire. Well, that also means she got to wear "the dress". This dress was made from Brian's grandmother's wedding dress. It was made in time for Meghan's baptism. So Meghan, Allison (Brian's sister's daughter), Lauren and Claire have now all worn this dress.

I don't have a picture of Allison in the dress, but here are our three girls in it for you to enjoy.

Here are the four girls today who have worn the dress.



This is Mimi Lee - the grandmother whose wedding dress was used to make this dress.
