April Hope's Baptism

April was baptized on Sunday and it was a family affair! It was great to have family members here to support us as parents and April as she grows up. We pray that she soon realizes her need for Jesus!

Here are some pictures (I'll share pictures of her in her dress soon...after I take them today!) We had lunch after church.....Chloe couldn't wait to eat some cake.....notice the p and e in "Hope"??....


We used the opportunity to take some "Generations" pictures with April:





This little girl has 3 great-grandmas!

This is the Aunts pictures - Aunt Chelle and Great Aunt Nancy:

We were having to pull April's fist out of her mouth while taking pictures....Michelle and I decided to pose like April for the sister's picture:




You may be wondering what Chloe was doing while we were taking pictures.....Here's a few shots to help you guess: :)




Only one person didn't make it in any of the pictures above....and he's the person who April felt the most cozy with :) Tom!

More Bloopers

These pictures just make me laugh ~ especially the last two. I have a feeling that Aunt Laura, in particular, will think those last two are funny also. :)

A dear friend

I'm leading the study tomorrow at my Bible Study. We're reading a book called Crazy Love by Francis Chan and the chapter I'm in 'charge of' of real life examples of people who are living completely for Christ. I've come up with an example from my own life to talk about and I thought I'd let my blog readers in on what I'm going to share tomorrow. Enjoy! I met Mrs. Hohman on a hot July afternoon after mistakenly knocking on her neighbor’s door. I stood on her front porch with my mom, nervously waiting to meet the woman I planned on living with for my first year at Grove City . I felt like I was towering over her short frame as she showed me the 3 rd floor and barked the rules of “no swearing, no smoking, no boys”.
