Calvin's Baptism

We had Calvin baptized on June 3, 2007. He was such a wonderful angel allowing that water to be poured over his head. Emerald enjoyed being part of her brother's special day. We aren't sure what it meant, but just as we were walking toward the front of the church for the actual baptism, the skies outside the church opened up and dumped! Emerald could be heard announcing to all, "That's thunder, lightening, hail, ice." The showers only lasted long enough for the baptism. Calvin wore a family gown--on that Emerald wore, ad even his grandfather, Walt. Pop Pop wasn't too happy to see his grandson in a dress, but it was nice to have the family tradition included in the baptism. We were thrilled to have Aunt Laura in town for the baptism. We missed Uncle Shane, but understand that he couldn't be here. We were lucky to have Laura, Shane, Karen, & Paul as Calvin's Godparents. We know they will be a blessing to have in his life. We also appreciated Nana & Pop Pop for driving down for the weekend.
