Emmett & his godfathers
Sunday August 9th we welcomed Emmett James into the church, as he was baptized before us in a very personal baptismal ceremony. We were so fortunate to have all of our family in attendance - all of Emmett's grandparents, his great-grandma Jeanette, his uncles and aunt, parents and big sister.

One tired big sister As I post this I realize regretfully that we don't have a photo of Uncle Patrick & Auntie Tanya...probably because they were snapping photos for us throughout the day as well. Now that is going to have to change because we need to capture their beautiful faces on camera as well!! (I'm sorry to you two!)
It was fun to enjoy some food and conversation at our home afterwards, and Emmett loved opening all of his lovely gifts (thank you) and tearing up the paper! It was such a wonderful day to celebrate our son and the love that God surrounds him with. Thank you all for being there and helping us celebrate!

Pictures are worth more than a thousand words! Beautiful work, Patrick! You capture everything so well.
These little ones grow up faster than "shutter speed". Let's enjoy them while we can.
Love, Nana & Papa
A wonderful day with a wonderful family! You all are to be congratulated. We enjoyed have a chance to celebrate with all of you. Thank you for arranging this so that we could be part of it. We thoroughly enjoyed the day and being part of this celebration for Emmett and participating with you.
