Baptism Day! It was awesome. I am so proud of my little guy for making the decision to get baptized. I am glad I wore a white shirt that day. It made for a nice picture :)
Have I mentioned how much I love my Mom and Dad? I am so glad they spent the week with us. I miss them already.
Grandma McKee gave Ander his own set of scriptures, with his named engraved on them as well. Aunt Melissa and Uncle Lynn gave him a journal. He's already written in it about his baptism day.
Grandma and Grandpa Dahle found probably the ONLY orange scripture case in the world. I am so glad someone thought to make at least one in that color, just for my son. They also gave him a CTR ring (CTR stands for Choose The Right) He's never taken it off yet. Grandma Johnson gave him a CTR tie pin. Super Cool!
Lohn made this box. I wish you could see it closer. It is beautiful and very well made. I love and miss my woodworker husband. But there is a time and season for everything, and someday he will be back at his craft.
And one must have his ears snorted in every once in a while. It's good for the soul. :)
And what kind of a day would it be if it didn't involve rolling around in the dirt??? Look at those dark eyes! Are these children mine???
Painting with cousins. Thankfully it wasn't too messy.
The girls entertained themselves wonderfully by playing games.
And another proof that I was wrong about sunsets/sunrises. Somehow my Dad found the only gap in the trees in the whole state of Virginia to get this picture.
It was a great week! I am so glad so many people came to visit and spend Ander's special day with us. I love them all!

Wow is that Sylas in the "dirt face" picture?? He looks so grown up and just like Tamsyn! Which I've never thought before. A little jealous that we couldn't be there with you guys, it was nice to see pictures of the "Eastern cousins". So happy for you Ander!
