Mitchell Gets Baptized








Here are a few pictures from Mitchell's Baptism this morning. In addition to Grammie and Bobo, John, Bonnie, Bill and Bobby stopped through on their way home from NC and Mary Beth, Ashton and Bella came along as well. It was all very nice and Mitchell did GREAT...even though he was wearing a "dress". He even got a little ribbing from Mr. Sid about that. Apparently, christening gowns are not very common in the Presbyterian church.


Immediately after the service, Grammie and Bobo hit the road for a long drive back to Texas. The Mitchell's stuck around and had some lunch and then, they too, had to hit the road. Because of Thanksgiving traffic, they were able to make the 3 hour drive in 6 hours. Yuck!
A little note about the gown: It was made from Great-Grandma Talley's wedding dress and lace from Grammie's wedding dress. Kamryn wore it at her baptism. It's a good thing that we had Mitchell baptized when we did...another couple weeks and it wouldn't have fit the big boy!
