Baptism

We finally got Gwen baptized. So now there is a little less pressure to keep her alive (but only an itsy, bitsy bit less).

One of my brothers and my sister came down, each of them bringing their three boys. It was crazy to have 9 kids (including Gwen) around. They played together amazingly well, so there wasn't any difficulty involved (other than trying to figure out where everyone was going to eat).

My parents and Arial's mom were there too. There were a lot of people in the house. Fortunately it was nice out, the kids played outside a lot.

Really not much else to say other than the Hawkeyes beat Michigan. The only flaw was that the game pulled my attention away from the people who weren't watching.

Finally, a shout out to C who was there but didn't get mentioned in this post.
