Our hearts were filled with joy today as we celebrated the blessed event of Grant David's baptism. We had a special private baptism at St. Peter Catholic Church with Deacon Mike surrounded by several family members and friends. Grant was in such a happy, peaceful mood throughout the entire baptism, and he didn't mind one bit when the water was poured on his head. He wore a baptism garment with a rich history worn by Scott as a baby and also Luke. (Reid was a few months older when we baptized him so it didn't fit.) Grant is such an incredible blessing to our family, and we were so happy to welcome him into our Church family today.
These boys are the light of our lives!

lovingly at Scott and smiling ... so sweet.
