The Baptism, Part 1

Two weeks ago, we were supposed to have Jacob baptised. However, Saturday afternoon before the baptism, our pastor called and said he was really sick and wanted to know if we could postpone. At that point, we had all the food made and the house was clean. So we decided to go ahead and have our party, even though there would be no baptism. In many ways, it was actually really nice to do it that way. There is no way we ever would have made it to church on time, looking nice, if we had had to be ready for the baptism and the party. So it was actually quite a blessing in disquise! (Thanks, Lannings, for taking the bad part of the deal on that one...they were all sick!) Here are some pictures from that day.



The real baptism is this weekend!
