A Baptism

This was a busy week-end! In spite of all the flooding in Iowa, Kalub Michael Steinbronn, age 10 months, was baptized at St. Pius X Catholic Church on Sunday, June 15 (also Father's Day). He had lots of family in attendance from both sides. Aunt Michelle and Aunt Marisa had to take a long detour to get here because of all the road closures in Iowa due to flooding. And, even though there is some flooding in Des Moines, we were dry and did not have to deal with water everywhere. It rained just a little and then the sun came out and it was a gorgeous day.
We attended Mass as a family and then had the baptism following in the newly remodeled church. Kalub wore the same baptismal outfit that Charlie had worn almost a year ago--and in the same church. Of course I took lots of pictures and will share them with you soon.
