Braxton James Baptized into the Catholic Church!

To start out... this picture was a request from Rylan. He wanted a picture with Jesus. Sorry he wasn't looking but I thought it was priceless! So Daddy and Rylan at Braxton's Baptism... getting a picture with Jesus. Just about ready for the baptism... hangin' out with Grandma Debbie! I love this picture!

All my Great Aunts Chris, Idonna, and Diane. So, Braxton's Great GREAT Aunts... and boy are they! Thank you so much for coming and celebrating this special occasion with us. Love you ALL!

Grandma and Grandpa holding Braxton before he gets baptized. Thank you for coming all the way from Iowa to be here on this special day!

Great Aunt Kris took all the awesome pictures! THANK YOU! They are awesome!

Love this picture too... Baptismal Candle.

Yes, Braxton was OUT during the ceremony.

Blessing his heart.

Baptize you in the Name of the Father, Son, and Holy Spirit. I am not sure any baby just let's someone pour water over their head. Braxton did and it was so cute cause Father was like... well did everyone get their pictures? CUTE! Also, Father was asking Dad about different things for Dad to get Father. He was like Pat you are doing such a great job you might need to get on the payroll. It was funny cause my Dad was just handing him things. We love you Father!!!

Blessing his head....still asleep.

Now out in the church before the alter. What a true blessing baptism is.
Thank you Father for coming to our rescue and Baptizing Braxton for us. Also thank you Caleb and Jenny for being there with us as well! Love you all!

Our whole family. Great Grandparents, Grandparents, Mommy, Daddy, and Big (Passed out)Brother Rylan.

Daddy and Braxton...

Our Family
He's Out! Lots of work being a big brother.

Thank you all who could make it to Braxton's Baptism!

Congratulations to my cousin Casie and her Husband Tyler!!!

The pictures are a little backwards... but so am I! :) Apparently the music was too loud for Rylan.

So, you had to have been there and I don't even remember the song but the parents were making the babies dance dirty and as you can see they didn't think it was as funny as the adults!

Us... without kids. I look at this picture and it seems so weird to me.

Three babies all born 6 weeks apart. First Ike on the left, then Miss Ivy, then baby Braxton! My sister Rhiannon got all the kiddos outfit not all matching but in the same colors. Leave it to her to think of this and it was so nice not figuring out what the boys were going to wear. AND they all looked SO CUTE!

The sleeping babies and the nursing Momma's.

Bride and Groom came in and the big boys couldn't miss a beat... had to come in and check out what was going on. Love this picture! Oh and the YUMMY cake behind them.

Mom aka the photographer. She took pictures of EVERYTHING this whole weekend!!! She even got a picture of my brother Caleb, Mike, Becca, and Ivy getting into the car. ARE YOU SERIOUS?! lol

Casie and her Father Eldon walking her down the aisle. AND we hear at the reception that just moments before this picture a SNAKE slithered right by them. I would have FLIPPED OUT!!!! Of course not Casie... calm!

Congratulations Tyler and Casie! You are a beautiful couple and will have a very happy life together! Love you! Your wedding was beautiful. Thank you for letting us celebrate your special day!
