Baby Dedication


On Sunday Erich and I had the honor of standing up in front of our church congregation and our family to dedicate Avery to the Lord. Erich and I pray that Avery will one day know the joy of a personal relationship with Jesus. Sunday was our opportunity to declare our intention to raise her in a Christ centered home and to lead her by example. We were so thankful to have our family travel in from out of town to celebrate this special occasion with us. Unfortunately, Avery was feeling a little under the weather but she made it through the day and seemed to enjoy that there was always a set of arms ready and available to hold her.

Getting ready to leave for church and looking so precious in her little dress. She hated the hat and refused to leave it on her head for more than a second.

Standing up front getting ready to pray for Avery. Notice she's missing a shoe. oops

If we can be half the parents to Avery that these four people have been to us we'll consider it a job well done.
