Theo's Baptism Day

Fano, Italy--
Theo Jasper Mine was baptized today. He's a little guy but he bellowed big time when the priest poured water all over his head and held him up to the cheering masses like the Lion King. We then returned to the Mine abode for a party, attended by numerous friends and relatives. We had great food and vino and played Ultimate Frisbee, which is bigger around here than soccer itself.

Joe, Oogle,
Toby, Bruno, Nico, Theo
TJ waves to his fans.
Theo, Maria, The Godfather.

Nona Elvira holds her grandson whilst Nico applies his new eco-friendly footwear.

Great to see everyone. I love the photo of Theo giving the classic blessing, il bambino di Caravaggio.
