Baptism

Hannah got baptized this morning. Both sets of parents, my brother and sister-in-law (Hannah's only aunt and uncle), and Jason's grandparents all came over for the occassion. Hannah was one of 7 babies and kids getting baptized! Of course, Pastor Steve commented on her big, blue eyes :-) Hannah did such a great job, not crying at all during baptism or the rest of the service. It really meant a lot to us to have our family and friends in the service to celebrate this dedication of Hannah into the body of Christ. We are so grateful to know that our friends and family who mean so much to us will play a large role in helping Hannah develop her faith and love for Jesus. We truly are blessed!

After church, everybody came back to our house for a bbq. Thankfully the weather held out, so the guys even ate on the deck. We ended our celebration by eating cake (from Zehnders - yum!!) and opening Hannah's gifts. She's really building a little college fund :-) Overall, we had a beautiful day to celebrate this important event in Hannah's life.


Nice family picture before church and Hannah's diaper blowout :-( Thankfully, Grandma Cramer saved the day and got the stain out of her dress. Thanks, Grandma!
