Brooke's Baptizimal




Okay, it has been a few days since I last blogged. Adam has been working and outage and getting home late and by the time he gets home and I get to work I am tired by the time I type all of my dictation that I don't want to type anymore. Okay enough of the pitty party. LOL. On the other hand I told some of you that I would post pictures of Brooke being baptized. Funny story behind these pictures though. This is actually a reinactment as my camera went dead when the actual event was taking place and I didn't get one. This is why Brooke has this little smerk on her face in one of the pictures. So, I figured, "okay, mom and dad have their camera I will just have to get some of their pictures." Can you believe their camera did the same thing!!! We decided it must have been the devil trying to sabatoge Brooke's happy day. The funny thing is I checked my batteries before I left home that morning and they were fine! Kinda scary. Then, let me tell you what Avana did to me! That little one took two or three years off of my life's span that same day at the church. After Brooke was through and came out the church came around and gave her their handshake or hug of christian fellowship. Avana got in my lap and said,"I want in the water!". I said no that water is not to swim in. Well, afterwards we had potluck at church and were in the fellowship hall. I had to run outside and put Brooke's wet clothes in the car. I thought Adam had put her in the highchair or if he didn't I thought someone did being there was several people there from our family. I get back in there and Avana is no where to be found. My heart stopped because I looked down into the santurary and the door on Brooke's side leading to the Baptistry was open. I began to cry and ran like a mad woman through the church hollering for Avana! Okay, I get almost all the way up to the door and just to the left of the door in a little niche is the church organ. The little stinker was sitting at the organ pretending to play it. I was never so glad to see that child! At the same time, I wanted to beat her because she didn't answer me! I don't know who was supposed to be watching her while I was outside but between all of them the couldn't keep up with her. Sorry it took so long to get back on here and blog. We have had birthday parties and things going on all weekend.
