Easter 2010

It is only through the power of his blood shed on the cross that I am blessed with the fullness of who he is. It is only through the Crucifixion that we have life and have it in abundance. Praises to our Lord! To you all the glory for this beautiful day.

I still have to do a double take when I see all of our children - I am blessed beyond measure for these amazing precious jewels!

Yes, this is Grant, OUR SON, all dressed up in the family heirloom baptism gown. I know he looks to boyish to be wearing a dress - yes, he is a little older than the babies who wore it before him, but it is part of tradition and it fits! He was such a great sport while we dolled him up for his big day. This gown is one of two hand made my Skip's mother. They are french hand sewn and are made of the finest cotton and lace. The gowns have been used by 12 grand children!
(half ours!) All Twelve


For a baby gift at Olivia's shower (11 years ago), Skip's mother surprised me with a slip to go under her christening gown. Now, all six children will have their monogram and the date of their baptism embroidered on the slip - such a treasure!
SO ADORABLE!!!





Skip's father baptized Grant on Easter Sunday. He is one of the greatest blessings in our lives. I cannot wait to get to heaven to see the many people he has brought into God's kingdom. He is such a beautiful example of the heart of God and has the gift of love beyond anything I have ever seen.
