Family LOVE! Waylon Day!

 April 3rd was the baptism of our great grandson!  It was a perfect day for this happy occasion!  He's now 9 months old--I was hoping he could wear the christening gown I made for our grandchildren--which was made with handspun silk that I spun and wove their mother's wedding dress!

  Alas, the grandchildren wore the gown when they were only 2 months old but our great is a older lad and couldn't fit his arms through the sleeves!  besides, his dad, who did wear the gown at his christening--said, it looked at a "GIRL outfit!  

 I know I could alter--it would have had my eyes leaking tears to see him in that gown from 30 years ago--My eyes still leaked some as I watched a new generation pledge their commitment to raise this young one into the Lord's family.  We celebrated with a family brunch after the service--Lots of good eats and the saying goes "a good time was passed by all!"

Waylon's custom made cake!  Yummy!  white cake with fondant frosting!

Waylon on the back of Joe sitting on his new saddle!  He needs shorter stirrups before he really rides

He wanted to make the horse go--but the saddle needs a longer girth belt--he looks

like he's ready to ride like the wind!

Oh holy day—a real treat to celebrate this special occasion!
