Someone's going to kill me when he or she sees the second picture, but until then, here is a picture of my family being silly. Look - even Little Brother is making a funny face!
The first picture is my dad with his five, count them, five grandsons. We do not do girls in this family. Nothing wrong with girls, of course.
This weekend was Little Bro's baby dedication at church. Rather than doing infant baptisms, our church does baby dedications where the parents stand in front of the congregation and promise to raise the child in a Christian home where Jesus Christ is Lord. Then when the child is old enough to understand what it means, the hope is that he will accept Christ into his heart as his personal Lord and Savior. The Bible provides numerous accounts of people being baptized as adults after publicly confessing Jesus as Lord. I don't think it's wrong to baptize infants, but I do think it is more personal and less symbolic when the person makes that decision when they are older. I was 26! That's quite a bit older than the norm.
We had an amazing weekend as usual! We had BB's dedication last September. It's a great reason to get together, and I love my family!

I know we ALL had a fabulous time this weekend! I can already see how much fun those five boys are going to have together and how much love is shared all around. From little Al* saying "Where de baby?" to the older cousins "calling" who got to hold BB and LB, it was truly a memorable time.
Thanks for being such great hosts!
Love,
Mom
