The Blessing of the Atlantic...






This past Saturday, we had the pleasure of joining the local Greek Orthodox Church for their annual blessing of the Atlantic Ocean. They decided to hold the service on the pier this year (last year's was on the beach), which was really quite perfect for getting to see the kids jumping into the freezing water to retrieve the cross. Our little ones had a wonderful time and especially loved seeing the two doves they released fly over the water!
