Tad was baptized on February 6, 2010 at Holy Spirit Catholic Church in Atlanta. Deacon Tom Shuler performed the ceremony and Tad joined good company as Deacon Tom baptized Bryce, Elsie, Brooke and Kit and married Beth and David and Barbara and Mike. We appreciated his thoughtful words and good sense of humor. Aunt Meg and Uncle Travis kindly agreed to be Tad's godparents. Tad had fun at the ceremony, except for the Puritan hat that was definitely too small and having to sit still for more than a few minutes. After the ceremony, we had a party back at our house. Johnny fired up the smoker and we celebrated with family and friends. Somehow things got a bit hectic and we unfortunately didn't take any photos of the party!
We were very lucky to have so many family members come to town to celebrate: Grammy and Pop from New Hampshire, the Bowles from Nashville and the Howells/Thompson crew from Savannah. We returned to the old days and celebrated Thursday, Friday (Johnny's 33rd birthday ended with Travis and Johnny singing karaoke of Cracklin' Rosie) and Saturday nights, followed by the superbowl on Sunday. Needless to say, we are still recovering and very sad the weekend is over.
