On Sat. Alex was baptized. It was a very special day. It was Luke's first time baptizing someone and I was worried about him because he hates speaking in front of people, but he did really good. Alex was pretty nervous too. He has been telling me for a few years that he didn't want to get baptized. He is like Luke he hates being the center of attention. They both did really good . I'm very proud of both of them. It took them a few minutes to come into the font because Alex started crying. When he finally came out into the water he saw all the kids sitting there right in front and he started laughing, it was a very nervous laugh. It was really cute. He calmed down and finish what he went there to do. It was very sweet seeing everything take place. I'm so proud of him! He is now glad he did it!

Luke gave Alex a pocket knife for his baptism. That's what his dad gave him for his baptism!
After the baptism everyone came to our house for lunch and to celebrate Alex's B-Day.

What a special day... for Alex and for all of you! It was a beautiful baptism and great celebration afterwards. I'm glad we could be apart of it. Alex was so cute when he finally walked into the font, laughing! That's cool that Luke kept the tradition and gave Alex a pocket knife! Oh, and I feel honored to have been right there as Chesnie held her bottle on her own for the first time!!!!
