Austin and Our New Nephew

We went to Austin for the weekend. It was a super quick trip, just up on Saturday and back on Sunday, to meet our new nephew and get him baptized!

We drove up Saturday morning and stopped at Iron Works BBQ for lunch on our way to Mike and Jess's house. Yum! Henry loved dipping his fingers in that barbecue sauce and eating it all up!

Gene came bearing gifts. Instead of gold, frankincense and myrrh, he brought wine, linguica and cheese (all Portuguese, of course!). And here's baby Michael, all ready for his baptism! The kids waited somewhat patiently for the ceremony to start.


But Henry decided he'd had enough photos taken already! Part of the ceremony The proud grandparents The family
After the baptism, Mike and Jess threw a great party at their house. The boys loved the cupcakes, of course!
And then all the dads took the boys outside to play soccer in the backyard! Uncle Gene with baby Michael It looks like Henry and I are having a great conversation here!Bye-bye, Mike and Jess!On the way home, we stopped for ice cream in Columbus.
It was so hot that the ice cream melted faster than we could eat it! It was a super fast trip, but we are so glad to have finally met the newest addition to the family!
