Henry's baptism

A few weeks ago was a special Sunday - we baptized Henry in our hometown church. It's pretty amazing that both sets of our paternal grandparents were members of this church, our dads were baptized here, aunts, uncles too; so many family members were married here, as were David and I in April of 2009. The new pastor Dr. Nita Crump did a beautiful job, and our Henry was fast asleep until she took him to walk down the center aisle. It was a special day with so many of our family members present to see the ceremony. 





We were overwhelmed with the love in having so many family members there to see our baby boy's baptism. 


Henry's a blessed little boy to have these grandparents!


And this great-grandfather too!


It meant so much to have my best friend Amy and her husband Chris there to celebrate with us!


Sweet aunts and uncles!


Great-aunts too!


Our happy boy!



Henry went a little casual for the lunch. :)



My mother in law, Pammy, hosted the baptism lunch - it was all so pretty! She had the tables set with blue and white, and mums as centerpieces.


Pictures of Henry's grandfathers were on display too.


Yes, this was as good as it looks! Amazing!!!



Lunch was pork tenderloin with twice baked potatoes, biscuits, green beans, and layered salad. It was wonderful!






Henry had one more ride with Coot in "Henry's" golf cart before we left for the beach. Henry LOVES riding in the golf cart! And this was his first time "driving"!



Hope you all have a great weekend! We are heading to a cookout with friends tonight, and I am going out on the town with my girlfriends tomorrow night in Atlanta - my first night away from my boys....wish me luck! :)
