Chase's Baptism

It was a special weekend. Chase was baptized on Sunday at the United Methodist Church in Clinton, MO. This church is special to me for a number of reasons. It's where I grew up and where Chris and I were married. This church, my church family, has been praying for Chase since the day he was born, and have been extremely supportive to our family. So what better place to welcome Chase into the Christian community. Chase was a perfect angel. Chris's mom, June, brought the Christening gown that Chris was baptized in, as well as several other members of Chris's family, including his father and grandmother. This gown is close to 200 years old and it is beautiful. It was too old and fragile to dress Chase in, but we layed it over Chase to snap some pictures. It was wonderful to have Jim and June, my sister and her family, and several other friends and family all come to town for the special occasion. After the baptism, we gathered at my parents for brunch. It was a prefect precursor to Christmas.
