The Pipkin Baptism Dress

Who know in 1989, that a dress my mom bougt for Maryn’s baptsim would be worn again by her grand daughter over 30 years later at her baptism?

Maryn wore this little white dress in January of 1989 when she was baptized.

She was baptized in the dress.

I wore it when I got baptized on my birthday in June of 1991.

(No Photograph was found)

I was baptized wearing the dress, like my big sister Maryn.

 

Krystin wore it when she was baptized in 1996 when she was baptized.

She wore it afterwards, and was baptized in a jump suit.

Then finally here is the youngest Pipkin sister, Chelsea Savannah Pipkin, on her baptism January 2, 2000. (Just a day after Y2K! Quite a gambel for my parents)  She also wore a jump suit for the baptism, but wore that specail dress for the day.

I tell all of this, so that the significance of wearing this dress to be baptized in is not lost in the mix. She chose to wear a 31 year old dress, that had been worn on this specail occasion, and I was so happy.
