Yesterday was a very special day for my baby girl and I. During the 10 o’clock service at our church we were baptized side-by-side, I made a commitment to God and made the promise to bring our sweet baby girl up with him in our lives. Our family and friends were only aware that Payton would be baptized so it was a pleasant surprise when Pastor Bruce told the congregation that I too would be baptized with her. It was very emotional for me as I had to fight the tears as I looked down at my proud parents, a mother-in-law’s camera flashes of excitement and sweet smiles from our dear friends. After the service we had a brunch at our aunt and uncle’s house where everyone celebrated our new found commitment. I will never forget that moment and I cannot wait to tell Payton all about it over and over again as she grows.
Below is an overload of pictures!
Don’t you love her headband? It’s from babyK designs (etsy). Her shoes didn’t arrive in time, a little bummed but luckily Macy’s came through for me!
The cupcakes I baked with chocolate fondant crosses dusted with gold dust.

Best friend Jerome, God Parents Travis and Suzanne, Aunt Kathy (in back) and best friend Jen.
Giggling like crazy afterwards.
