Baby Dedication

On Sunday, we had Hayden's baby dedication at our church. It was a sweet ceremony that introduced the 4 new babies, we as parents committed to raise our child in a Christian home, and the church family committed to model Christian beliefs as well. Each baby was given a New Testament Bible with their name on it, a certificate, and a Bible verse. Hayden's special Bible verse was "Whatsoever ye do, do it heartily, as to the Lord...for ye serve the Lord." Colassians 3:23-24

Hayden decided to be a little talkative during the ceremony. He "talked out" when the preacher was speaking, when we were praying, and when it was time to say Amen. It was priceless! After the ceremony, the children's choir sang a sweet song.

Hayden had many special people there that day that we are so thankful for! Special thanks to our friends Jeff, Jennifer, Landree, Hudson, and Cindy for coming and sharing this time with us! It was a special day for our family.

A few pictures from our day...
