On September 30, Drew was baptized at Resurrection Presbyterian Church. He wore a special bow tie that was made for him for his Aunt Megan's wedding. This is the only picture where he's smiling - right before we left! Curtis also wore his matching bow tie from her wedding!
Our pastor, Adam Brice, baptized Drew in the name of the Father, the Son & the Holy Ghost. This doesn't mean that he is saved or that he has a personal relationship with Jesus (although we hope he does at some point), but it does mean that Curtis and I will be raising him in the fear and admonition of the Lord. It is a vow that we make before the congregation. It was neat to hear the members of our church also vow to help us do this! Here's a few pictures to document:
Drew seemed really interested in what Adam was saying. Here's another angle of our family.
When the water hit...
Drew wasn't such a happy boy...and the expressions from the rest of us are great so I'm going to post a few.
Love, love Anna's expression!
He was our only child to cry during their baptism!
Afterwards, we took some family shots. It's pretty hard to get all of us to look the same way and smile!
This one may have been the best!
So much for that! Hopefully, our Christmas card family pictures will turn out better.
Here's a picture of our family with Adam.
We celebrated by bringing a cake to share with the congregation. We made sure to subtly represent the Florida Gators with our napkins and plates!
It's a good thing we took these pictures because we didn't have ANY leftovers!
We sure love this guy and we are truly blessed that God brought him into our lives. He really does complete our family!
