Colton's Dedication

This Sunday was Colton's baby dedication. This means that Brett and I make a commitment to raise Colton with the knowledge of Jesus and pray that he will honor HIM when he grows up.
It was quite the party!! We had 4 babies being dedicated (for those of you who know our church: Aiden Barkhurst-Clark and his 2 toddler brothers, Jackson Leverentz, Iain Pitman, and of course our Colton Hoben). At least one set of grandparents were present and from a couple of families (including ours) great-grandparents were there!
Church was held at Flora Park. Thankfully the weather was beautiful so we could enjoy the service and the Taco Bar lunch that followed! It was perfect!

Sam Janecke prayed for Colton and our family.

The cake!! And Anita, the cake cuter.

The pavilion was packed because of all the extended families being there and also because the Emmaus students are back to school. This was the students' first Sunday back!!!

** After a very busy weekend with a wedding on Saturday, a bean-toss tournament on Saturday afternoon till late at night, preparations for Sunday, and the dedication, I was pretty pooped by Sunday afternoon. But I had a chance to relax with a nap and a manicure party at a beauty salon, where my friend, Mikaela works. Thank you Mik for the manicure, it was just what I needed!
