SPECIAL CREEK BAPTISM SUNDAY

A beautiful Sunny Sunday morning to start this very special day. The morning was different than usual in that we aren't having our family lunch today so we didn't have anything to do this morning but chores and have a leisurely breakfast before church.
Our new associate Pastor gave the message today about treasure on earth verses treasure in Heaven.
After church we all went to our separate houses for lunch because we are getting ready to go up to a special place on Clear Creek, the same creek that runs by our farm for a Baptismal service this afternoon.
We went to #2 son's house and rode with he and Tif over to the field since it was very close to their house.
It was a very blessed day as I got to watch my oldest grandchild give his public profession of faith in getting Baptized .
I feel so blessed to be able to witness this event and I was so proud of the way he handled himself during the service, encouraging the younger and older ones that were also being Baptized. There were 9 candidates for Baptism in the creek today, May all the Glory go to God !!!
 G-son and Pastor Craig enter the creek.






 HALLELUJAH,  TO GOD BE THE GLORY AND WE ARE SO PROUD OF THIS YOUNG MAN!
Little sister was taking it all in under her dad's watchful eyes.


There was a great crowd to witness this wonderful afternoon event.

G-son's entire family was there for him,from left-Tif, #2 son,g-daughter R,d-in-love, John deb's b-friend, Tim d-in-love's brother with his daughter Stella, Deb, d-in-love's mom, daughter, hubbie, son-in-love with g-daughter I, and #1 son.  G-son was still in the creek and I was the photographer.
G-daughter I slept in daughter's lap through alot of the service !!
G-daughter R had to have her turn in the water with her mom.
We left shortly after the Baptism and came home to relax. Since we had eaten a late lunch we weren't hungry to stay for the cookout they had. I did contribute a caramel cake and some of my homemade hot mustard sauce for the dinner.
Son-in-love and daughter came after their dogs who have been here all weekend while they were in Pidgeon Forge , Tenn.
Hubbie and I had watermelon for our supper from the large melon hubbie bought at the flea market last week.
We did chores then watched this special day end with a beautiful sunset.
This is a special day for g-daughter I also as she turned 2 months old today. Time sure has flown by this summer but this summer has definitely been one to remember for our family.
I am so very thankful for the blessings of this day and for the comfort in knowing that G-son will spend eternity in Heaven with our Wonderful, Heavenly Father.
God Bless and Good Night
