... until he realized what he had gotten into. Look at how worried he is!
The entire family was present for the occasion, with my little sis Irene serving as godmother and Mike's older bro and my long-time friend Gerald becoming Elliot's godfather.
In true post-wedding ceremony style, we had a photo shoot on the alter following the baptism. Here's a photo of the happy family of Drew, Elliot, Mike, and Vic.
And a photo of the larger family, which included cousins Charles, Chin, Hana, and Lynn, as well as Mike's parents, who came down from San Francisco. (By the way, in a perfect example of Like Mother Like Daughter, look at how my mom and I think that we're the Korean Rockettes with our feet in perfect alignment. )
After the church ceremony, we got together at Cafe Del Rey in Marina Del Rey for a celebratory brunch. Cafe Del Rey turned out to be an ideal venue; the food was fantastic, especially the bread selection which included mini pain au chocolat (yum!) AND mini croissants, and the views of the marina were spectacular. Most importantly, it was a really fun crowd, which included most of the aforementioned family as well as friends Lisa, Bradley, Sammy, 2-week old Ruby (!), Andrea, Danny, Jackson, Diane, Chris, and Greg. All in all, Elliot's baptism was a great excuse--I mean occasion--for doing what we do best: getting together and pigging out.

This is one of the happiest days of my life, celebrating Elliot's Baptism with my entire family.
