baptism

Lucas was baptized on Sunday, July 22nd at our new church, Crestview Presbyterian Church, in Cincinnati. We also joined the church that day too. They have new member classes about 4 times a year and we missed the last two. It was very special to join the church and have Lucas baptized on the same day.

Josh was ornery while we were sitting in the pews. He took off his shoes which is one of his signature naughty tricks that he usually performs at restaurants. He was very good when it was time for the baptism. He even answered the minister's questions very loudly after everyone else did which made the whole congregation laugh. Lucas was unaffected when the water was rubbed on his head. He was almost asleep as the minister took him from my arms and walked him around to show everyone. He didn't protest when he was held by the minister. When we got back to our seats he quickly cuddled in and fell fast asleep for the rest of the service.

We were so happy to have family with us that day. We had a full house, but it was lots of fun!!! Thanks to Richard's parents (Keith and Cindy), Melissa, Jason, and Bradley, and my parents (Randy and Gloria) for making the long drive to help us celebrate the special occassion.
