On a snowy January 11, we attended the Baptism of

Lilianna Marie Ryan

Lilianna is the infant daughter of Sara & Kevin Ryan. Sara is the daughter of longtime friends Gail & Bob Moran. Though Kathy could not attend as she was still in Florida, Bryan, Brad & myself were thankful to be invited and very happy to witness the blessed event.   

It was held at St. James Church in Arlington Heights.   The Moran family was there in it's entirety except for beautybabe daughter Katie who had headed back to university in Colorado earlier in the week.   Mary Moran, younger sister of Sara, was the proud Godmother and Kevin's brother was Godfather.

Following the ceremony we went back to Bob & Gail's where we had a nice lunch and a great afternoon  of visiting with our friends.

God Bless You Lilianna On this

your baptismal day!
