Shelby's Baptism

What a special day!!
Shelby was baptized today and other than tinkling on Daddy as the service started she did fabulous!!!!
We took a few pictures before the service.

From a previous post, you know Shelby wore my dress I was 'dedicated' in.
 
She did so good.
It wasn't until right  when we went up for the baptism Brad realized her diaper leaked.
YIKES!
He had put the diaper on wrong.
Dr. Howell is amazing.
Truly, a great minister.
So glad he was in town for her baptism.
 Our entire family who was present.
So very special to have family there.
Grandparents

We had a light brunch at our house afterwards.
My cousin Karen made the bunting and mailed it to me.
How awesome is that?
I plan to use for first birthday too.
Believe it or not I didn't have to buy any decorations.
We had everything already inlcuding serving ware.
The flowers were from a neighbor's yard.
I think everything was perfect for the occassion.


The cake was made by Deb's Sweet Cakes here in Charlotte.
Raspberry buttercream.
Delicious.

My friend Karen?
Best EVER!!!
While we were at church she set out all the food and prepped everything!
She did an amazing JOB!
I can't thank her enough!
Cousin Mike in from VA.
My 1st cousin Katie who lives in town.
So special for them to be there.
Friend Kelli.

  8. Dr. Howell used to be at my parent's church...he is a dynamic minister. He used to know everyone in that church by name, including me who wasn't a member. I am glad he was able to baptize Shelby!
