Harper's Christening

We had a wonderful time visiting with my side of the family this past weekend. Ken and I loaded up a sleeping Harper Friday night and made the trek to Muscle Shoals. Sweet little angel slept the whole way & didn't even wake when we took her out of the car seat and put her into bed! Saturday was spent hanging with the fam'. It isn't often that all four of us kids are home at the same time. 

PaPa's 90th birthday was Sunday!!! We decided to have Harper's christening the same day so that we could honor the oldest and the youngest members of our clan! It was so special to have it in the Campground Methodist Church that my great-grandfather helped build. There is a lot of love in that little building! MaMa brought the baptism water from the spring that runs by their house. We were glad to be surrounded by so much family. Even Aunt Connie (special thanks to her for Harper's beautiful dress) and some of her crew were able to make it down.  It was a great time all-around!
