While we were in Clarkston, Washington, we got to baptize Merrick. What a great ceremony Father performed. We went to the regular Sunday service, then stayed afterwards to get Merrick baptized in a private ceremony that allowed everyone to be in on it (and roam around and take pictures). Here are several pics of the ceremony in progress. Bridgett and Brooke Fisher are Merrick's "Co-Godmothers".
And right after we completed.
We are now done and it is picture taking time. Everyone on stage!
The Parents, Godmothers, Grandparents together
Jack and Dottie with the Little Man.
Dixie and Patty with Eva and Merrick.
The Russells: Terrie, Randy, and John
The Fishers: Virginia, Gary, Bridgett, and Brooke
Whole mess of grandkids.
And of course, ME at the end of it all.
We ajourned to Jack and Dottie's for a nice family party. We had a nice cake and Merrick got some pretty nice gifts too.
