Emmie was baptized on July 26, 2009. My grandfather that married Boyd and me and baptized Walt was there to baptize Emmie. And we were able to use the my grandmother's father's baptismal bowl in the service. All of these traditions topped with over 30 of our family members there made it such a special day. Since Emmie was 18 months getting baptized, she was not too keen on the idea of our preacher carrying her down the aisle as she was introduced to the church. He handled it so well, and just said the three of us will take a little walk. He also pointed out to the congregation that the front left half of the church was Emmie's family. After church, we had our family back to our house for brunch. It is so wonderful to be close to family again and to share such special moments in our lives with them. 
Walt was just doing a little preachin' after the service.
