For then I'll be baptized you see

Henry is his dapper suit. The exact same suit that David wore for his baptism 20 something years ago! I love that Pam ( my mother-in-law) saved it and that Henry fit it PERFECTLY!

Dressed in white, all ready to go!
Henry was so excited for his baptism that he woke up at
6:20 AM!

I can NOT believe that that little boy is 8 already! My baby boy just turned 13! I don't know if I can handle all this getting older stuff!

So happy for you guys! especially Henry!

Very exciting day I bet! Congrats to Henry and you guys as well! Cute dress by the way:) I am sooo in need of some new stuff since I am still wearing clothes I bought before I was married. Yikes. Where do you shop?

Henry looks great in David's old suit! I love it! Also, Agnes is getting so old...and I love your dress...and Calvin and David are awesome too. :)

Congratulations, Henry!

That suit is just to die for! The baptism was SO put together and you guys were great! What a day to remember. I'm so glad I could make sure the font was filled and warm for you guys. :D

It WAS a lovely service. Henry looked so great, and was so PROUD of his dad's suit, which made it even more heart-warming. Your talk was so great. The Spirit was there. I LOVE baptisms, but isn't it surreal when it's YOUR baby??? Henry is such a doll. I loved what the bishop said at the start of the meeting. So true. I am glad we were able to witness this special occasion.

Thanks to Raina for getting upa t the crack of dawn to fill the font! Who knew it took hours to fill?

Robyn-I'll spill my fashion secrets for you...all of my clothes come from Target or Old Navy. As much as I wish they all came from J Crew and Anthropologie, it's just not in the budget these days:)

So sweet! I love that he got to wear David's old suit- very impressive that his mom saved it. Congrats to you all.

Happy, sweet Day! I love that Henry wore his dads suit, he looks pretty dapper if I do say! I wish I could have been there, it sounds like a perfect day.

I love that Henry wore David's own suit! Special history. (Also coveting your dress. You ROCK the Target/Old Navy look and make it look much more expensive.)

What great pictures! The coolest thing is that suit of his father's! Sounds like it was an amazing day! Congrats Henry!
