All in White!

It was the perfect day for the first snowfall. Well, maybe a bit early,
but I thought it was fitting on Sophia's baptism day for the valley to be covered in white.

She was so excited and such a great hostess, greeting everyone with a smile, hug and program. I would have to say that white is my favorite color on Lee!

Isaac was very restless before, during and after, how unlike him! Here is his friend Andrew trying to set a good example for the little renegade.
Here is our girl all fresh and clean wearing the beautiful dress made by her Grandma Primm.
She felt just like a princess, and definitely looked the part! Thank you Grandma!

Tutu gave a wonderful talk on baptism and the spirit, I kept looking at Sophia as she absorbed every word. Thank you Tutu!

And a BIG thank you to everyone who came to the baptism and for those who were there in spirit. We love you all!


My friend Jenny gave me the fabulous suggestion to go out for pizza afterward, which we did, and it was fabulous! It definitely helped me to focus on the event of the day, and not worry about all that other stuff. You know, that not so important stuff.
