Cade was baptized this Sunday and did exceptionally well. He hardly even budged when Father Gary poured the water over his head. Cade's Godparents are my brother and sister-in-law, Matt and Jessica Youngman. They are so wonderful to him and we are so lucky to have them in his life. I know they will be loving, supportive, and guiding throughout his life. It was a very special day and one that I will never forget. The white gown Cade is wearing is the gown I wore when I was baptized, as did my brother, mom, Aunt Debbie, and cousins Josh and Sarah when they were baptized. I had debated on whether or not to have him wear this gown or a new one, but am so glad I went with the traditional one. He looked absolutely sweet in it and I love that it is being passed from generation to generation. Thanks to everyone who was able to help celebrate this special day. And a special thank you to Grammy Gaye for hosting the wonderful luncheon afterwards at her home. Especially after the week she's had! Another special thank you to Aunt Debbie and Uncle Steve for their help in preparing for it as well.
This moment brought tears to my eyes. It was so precious to see him being baptized as he gazed into our eyes.

Thank you for inviting us to be a part of today. What a wonderful milestone to witness. It was also great to see everyone at your parents house!!

Wow... that was fast! I'm impressed! :-) It was wonderful to be home this weekend and be a part of this very special day for Cade. He was an absolute Angel.. as always!! Look forward to seeing you all again this weekend!
What great pictures! What a special day! God has truly blessed both of you with baby Cade!
Congrats!
We all missed being there so much!!! So glad you got these up so quickly so we could see what we missed. I think I got confused on the gown thing....I thought my mom, Josh, and I were something different from you guys. Now I wish I would have put Owen in that! Oh well.
You have a wonderful baby boy and We are SO honored to be his godparent and to be a part of this special day!!!!
Love you all
