Jack's Baptism














On Sunday, Jack was baptized at the Naval Academy Chapel. We were so lucky to have tons of family in town to share the special occasion. Our wonderful friends, Derek and Elizabeth Jaskowiak (and their son, Charles, and puppies Riley and Bella) were also able to make the trip up. Derek and Liz are Jack's Godparents. We have been blessed to be stationed with them several times, they are amazing friends! Charles and Jack are 6 weeks apart (Charles is older) and we are looking forward to them growing up together. Hopefully they will be just as good of friends as their parents are!

We were also blessed to have Jack baptized by a good friend, Chaplain Lt Jaime Stall-Ryan. Jaime was the chaplain on the Cleveland when Matt was on it. They became good friends. A baptism is a very special occasion and it means even more when a good friend can be involved.

After the baptism we all gathered for a small reception on the water at the Academy. The cupcakes and lemonade were delicious!
