Wading in the Water

The 31st of October was not only Halloween at our house this year, but it was also the day Little Dude was baptized. Halloween was the day last year, that Hub's Dad Jack passed away. Instead of celebrating it as a day of the dead, we decided to make it a day of new life. It was a beautiful ceremony that took place at 9:00 a.m. at the Shepherd of the Desert Church. Little Dude was so well behaved, didn't cry at all (even during the water pouring) and was the hit of the show. We went the unconventional route with Godparents with Little Dude. Instead of a Godmother and Godfather, we have chosen two Godmothers. Aunt Debi and Aunt Kelly. I am a firm believer that sex, or religious affiliation have nothing to do with how someone can be a good Christian role model for my children. I believe these woman will be great role models not only for Little Dude, but for the rest of the kids as well. It was a wonderful day. Aunt Debi and Uncle Craig were able to fly out to be with us and celebrate this wonderful day!
