Weekend Extravaganza Part 2- Evie's Baptism

Sunday morning we had Evie baptized at our church.  She is a little younger than Mason was, but we really wanted her baptized in our church by Derek and we just didn't know when we will be moving, so we went ahead and did it.  She did great and right after Derek put the water on her head she gave him the biggest smile.  It was really sweet.  We all went to Eastridge afterwards and had a nice lunch.

The invitation

All dressed in her gown.  All of the Montgomery grandchildren have worn this gown (Matthew was the first) and Mason and Evie are the only two great grandchildren so far.  I can't wait to see Mason and Evie's children in it one day.

Everyone's name and baptism date is monogrammed on the slip.  Such a special heirloom!

Mason did pretty good up there.  He was playing with my hair and touching my lipstick though.  ( I think he is not used to seeing me with my hair down or lipstick on!  ha!)

the grandparents and great-grandparents went up with us






Mason loves his Mimi

We were so glad that Derek could perform the Baptism.  He is our preacher for the Contemporary service and has been our SS teacher for the last 2 years.

yummy petit fours for dessert

We were glad that we could combine both the party and baptism in one weekend so that our families would only have to travel once.  I think the weekend turned out so nice and we are so thankful for everyone that made the trip!
