Once again I am playing catch up. Emma had her 8th birthday on August 26 and we had her baptism on her birthday!
When she woke up she got to open her presents, she got a lot of Littlest Pet Shop stuff, her book was even a Littlest Pet Shop book.
My parents and two youngest brothers, Wesley and Jordan, were in town visiting from PA for her baptism. Ian, Angela, Adelia and baby Joseph were also able to make it up from San Diego where Ian is doing his internship at the Naval Medical Hospital in Balboa Park.
For their birthdays they get to pick what their "special" birthday dinner would be. Emma chose homemade pizzas!
Things were crazy that day running from one thing to another trying to get everything done. We were not able to have her birthday cake before we had to leave for her baptism so we had it when we got home.
There were about 71 people there at her baptism! Wow! Thank you everyone who was able to make it. You helped make Emma's special day even more special.
After the baptism we all traipsed back home for cake and ice cream. Emma chose those Cheesecakes from a box, the Jello brand. We love those things at our house!
We also brought home with us friends Rachel, Crystal and Winter as their mom had to leave the baptism early. Mom, Wendy and brother Darian got there shortly after we did so they all joined us for cake and ice cream.
It was a late night getting to bed.
