Baptism weekend

A great weekend had by all in New York for Anne-Marie's baptism.  We were joined by friends, family and cherished members of the North Granville United Methodist Church (who are really more like family) to welcome Anne-Marie into the church.  Uncle Wayne (Liz's uncle) and Tara (great friend of ours) were her godparents.  The weather timed it perfectly so we could all get there and home safely. 

Uncle Nate actually got a hair cut and trimmed his beard for the occasion

Pastor Meredith performing the baptism (they heated the water a little so it wouldn't be cold)
