Harper's Baptism

We drove to Kansas City last weekend for Harper's baptism at her Daddy's home congregation. 

My parents, Harper's great-grandparents, met her for the first time.

We all took turns holding her and getting re-acquainted.

Brandon's pastor briefed them before the service.

The introduction to the baptism.

The children's sermon concluded the baptism,
and most of the kids who came forward
happened to be Harper's cousins.
They got to help introduce Harper to the congregation.

It is Finished

It's been a very long haul, but the kitchen project is now complete.

Looking back the other way.

Our furniture and other belongings were only delivered to us from storage about 10 days ago, so we're still unpacking and getting settled. But no more construction dust, noise, or intrusions now, so we can begin to make this home.
