Laney's Baptism

This past weekend was spent in the hill country with the Crowell's and the Berg's (two of them). Lesley hadn't seen Laney in over a month and she, well, Laney is hers when she is around. She finally got to see her crawl and pull up. It was a special weekend at the ranch for all of us. And dinner Friday night was hysterical!






We had Laney baptized on Sunday morning. This was us dedicating our baby girl to the Lord and promising to raise her in a Christian home. Us going into church....



Laney absolutely loved watching the water being poured but she did not like having it on her head! She thought it was bath time I think. Please don't judge me for not having the shoes on her. The sandals she had on were what got us through the church service to the baptism and kept her sort of distracted--she chewed on them.



Moments later Laney reached for the flame and Matthew and I both knee jerked to her hand! I love this picture of me and my baby girl.



We had a lunch in Llano at the Marktplatz in the middle of town. It was a beautiful day, the food we catered was wonderful, and the Sprinkles cupcakes were awesome! The only thing missing was a kite! Laney was really happy and lunged for the jogging stroller when we brought it out. She loves that thing! I am so glad for that! The Berg Girls.....

And Lindsay and Steven made the trip to Llano and then Fredericksburg. It was wonderful to see my preschool friend! Laney was worn out by the end of it. This is her Harrod's dress from London that my Momma got her! It is my favorite dress from Laney's collection!


The Crowell Family....






We miss you Daddy! What doesn't kill us makes us stronger! And someday soon it will be worth it.

Oh Laura....what a treasured day right here before Mother's day! I too love the picture of your and your little girl with the protection from the flame... soon you and Matt will teach her about loving THE FLAME and she will want it burning inside always! I also love the last one of you, Matthew Crowell.... Daddy's arms CANNOT be replaced... and that is as it should be! love you all!
oh yes, how is July looking? I know I told the Abriggs they should have checked on you guys coming the same time in May... but that I thought July was what you'd said. thanks again for sharing a treasured day!
