Callie's Baptisim
Callie was baptized this past weekend on Easter Sunday. The day was absolutely perfect, we couldn't have asked for anything more. We started the day with opening Callie's Easter basket from the Easter Bunny. Then I got ready and then Callie ready- I was actually on time!! We decided to have her baptized at early service and then have our family and close friends over for brunch at our house. The church service was amazing. Callie didn't cry or fuss, just a complete angel. She even talked to the pastor and was looking at her like she understood everything that she was saying. The baptism was extra special too because the water that we used was from the River Jordan. My grandparents visited there right after I was born and brought back water for all the grandchildren to be baptized with it. Vaughn was a little worried about using the water since it came from another country 20+ years ago, all he could think about was an episode of House! oh well... After she was sprinkled with the Holy Water our Pastor walked her down the aisle to show her to the congregation. Vaughn and I cried, Callie smiled at everyone. It was one of those moments where you know your are truly blessed and God knows exactly what he is doing for your life. After church we went to our house to celebrate Callie being baptized with everyone. We hated that some couldn't be there, but appreciated everyone that came and helped us with the day! Below are some pictures taken that day. Callie was great the whole day, never once cried!
I am so sorry we couldn't be there, but I couldn't be more excited for Callie on such a special day! I know God knew what he was doing when he blessed her with such wonderful parents. Love you all!
