December 2010: Keagan's Baptism

Keagan's baptism: We drove up Friday afternoon, and spent the night at Barbara and David's home.

Christmas lights and Christmas season night.

Riley said the sky looked like a "pink rainbow."

Getting hugs.

These hugs are so fleeting you have to grab them when you can.

All ready, and eyeing the dessert area.

  Barbara and David were going to host a little gathering afterwards.

The family portrait that makes us laugh, with Maddy ready to grab one of the homemade oreos.

That's a lot of wattage in those smiles.

I love the hammerlock she has on her brother.

Keagan and her grandmother Charon.

Then we all went over to the church.  

Maddy and her Dad.

Lots of children came--Matthew and Kim drove up from Phoenix with their family--a real treat!

Cousins to Keagan, from one side of the family to the other.

Barbara had arranged a surprise for Dave.  Matthew had picked up a T-shirt to his soon-to-be dental school and had gotten a congratulations cake.  We're really happy and proud of you, Dave!

Matthew with Brooke.  She wasn't feeling well that day, so Dad held her.

Kim and Emilee.

Maddy's birthday was the next day (Happy Birthday!) so she opened and played with one of her gifts.

Maddy wanted to hold Danielle, so Barbara held them both.

It was a lovely weekend, and a lovely event.
