Hampton's Baptism

We chose to have Hampton's Baptism the same weekend of Bob's birthday just in case some of our far-flung relatives wanted to attend. Even though most of them had to go home early (it takes lots of hours in the car to get back to TN), we wanted them to know that they were invited.

The Baptism went great, and we were so thankful because you never know how a baby may react to having water poured on his head in front of a crowd! Luckily, our child is quite the social butterfly, and he loved being the center of attention. When our Pastor turned him around to see the congregation, Hampton held up a hand and waved to everyone! It was hilarious. He only whined when it was time to go back to Bo!

After the church service, we headed to brunch at Tacky Jack's, a great little waterfront restaurant with a wonderful breakfast menu. We should have planned ahead a little more for seating, but the staff was very nice and had us seated rather quickly. We had a great time with everyone, and Amy and Tanner got their workouts since both kids had a blast playing with Jack's trains and throwing them on the floor.....repeatedly.

It was a very special day for Hampton, and we have lots of photos for him to one day look back on!
