Before her baptism day, I did a photo shoot of Audrey in her gown, just as I did with Lucy and Ella. This gown is really meaningful...it's been worn by almost all of my female cousins and now some of the next generation of little girls. Audrey was happy to wear it, and even happier to eat it! It was nearly impossible to get shots of her without it in her mouth!
My aunt Gail has lovingly stitched the names, birthdates, and baptismal dates of everyone who has worn the dress onto the bottom of the slip layer. Here's who has worn the gown, and the year they wore it:
Laura Kaye 1977
Carolyn Beth 1978
Sarah Ann 1979
Diane Kathleen 1980
Christy Lynn 1980
Tracy Ann 1982
Angela Marie 1983
Amy Jo 1985
Veronica Ann 1988
Kaylee Marie 2001
Lucy Jane 2006
Eleanor Marie 2007
Audrey Mae 2010
What a cool tradition!! I especially like the second photo - she's so cute!
