Baptism

Colin Tariq was welcomed into the Catholic Church on April 25, 2009.

We were so excited for his special day!

He was the only baby (out of 12!) who cried when he was anointed with the Holy Water. "How dare that man disturb my slumber!", Colin must have thought!

Colin was worn out quickly from all the festivities.

We were overjoyed that Father Gerry Creedon performed his baptism...his Irish accent

would have made his Great-Granddaddy's Irish eyes twinkle!

He wore the traditional barong...brought all the way from the Philippines by his Lola and Lolo!

We were happy that so many people from so many different places witnessed this event.
