Vivien's Baptism

Today was a special day as we celebrated Vivien's baptism with our church family, our extended family, and some favorite friends.
As you can see below, we have a little sinner on our hands! This funny picture turned up out of my little photo shoot on Friday. Of course, our inner-middle-schooler likes to laugh at it but we find it to be a good representation of our attitude towards God without the working of His grace in our hearts. Yet by His grace, we can say (as we reminded in today's sermon), "We are great sinners but He is a great Saviour!"

Sweet Vivi Leigh, we pray that you are awakened from the stupor of sin and that you know the perfect grace that our God has promised to us. Our love for you is enormous but God loves you greater still. We will be imperfect parents but He is a perfect God and Father. You are a joy to us and we look forward to seeing the fruit of God's grace at work in your life! Yummy food...pretty flowers...cute girls!
Talking to KK (we missed getting a pic of GG and KK with Vivien but they were here and worked hard to help us make this day special)

  1. So sorry we couldn't make it. We finally had Reagan's dedication day at church and it just happened to fall on the same weekend. She sure does look precious! Can't wait to meet her and hopefully sooner rather than later! Won't be long and we'll have a boy to throw into the mix! Love you guys!

Since our wedding scrapbook is still in the form of a scrapBOX, we plan to use blurb.com to occasionally convert this blog into a photobook for our girls. Your comments will be included in the book and we love them! Thanks again for dropping by!
