I Can't Wait Until I'm 8 for Then I'll Be Baptized You See

Matthew turned eight this past weekend! We had the ultimate birthday/Baptism gathering for him. Everybody from Mark's side of the family came and although not everyone from my side of the family was able to make it, they were in our hearts! We were busy, busy, busy! We had a party,and had his Baptism which was so wonderful. I was overwhelmed watching one of my babies going into the waters of Baptism and I was completely choked up when he came out of the freezing cold, water sputtering and threw his arms around his dad. What a beautiful moment I will ALWAYS cherish in my heart! We had a snowball fight to which I have not seen it's equal! It was a total blast this weekend and we are so thankful for our wonderful family for coming so far and taking the time to share this time with us!

Here are some pictures of our amazing weekend! I captured a lot of great things I will always want to keep close to my heart!
