Two weeks ago at church we had Peter dedicated Lord. It was really cool. It was much more of a personal experience than I expected. That week they were dedicating 2 babies; Peter and his cousin Keifer (Josh and Celeste's son who is 9 days younger than Peter). They called up both families. First they held up Keifer for the whole congregation to see and then they prayed for him for a while and then they prayed for Josh and Celeste for a while. Both the head pastor and the kid's pastor prayed a loud and several of the other pastors surrounded them and prayed for them as well. Then they switched to Peter. They held him up for everyone to see and they they prayed for him and us. It was pretty special.
It was also neat because Caleb's parents were able to make it up for the weekend to watch their grandsons get dedicated. So Caleb's parents were there, as well as my parents, Kim & Ben, Larry & Christin, and Melissa & Ryan. Thankyou all for coming. It was really special having you there!
Afterwards we had everyone over for a BBQ at our place.
Here's Peter in his cute little sweater-vest that we got him for the occasion.

Just too darn cute for words. I'm glad that it was a special time. It is a good thing to dedicate our little ones to the Lord.
Beautiful photos, glad it was so meaningful. It's nice to take the time to reflect on the big picture.
