The Baptism

Leslie Rose joined the church on October 12, 2008. It was a beautiful day and we were blessed to be surrounded our family and friends.

Aunt Christy and Uncle Matt have taken on the awesome responsibility of being the Godparents. Thank you so much for helping raise Leslie in the church.

The Candle symbolizes Christ, whose life was consumed out of love for us.

We would also like to thank the Goodrow's for lending us the beautiful baptismal gown Leslie is wearing. She was beautiful in the dress.

Having Fun in October

Last Thursday, we had a picnic lunch with the Goodrow Gang. It was a beautiful day in their backyard. I just love this picture of the 4 kids together. We did not plan it but Leslie and Ethan are both wearing green and brown outfits with an owl on it.

Early Saturday morning, I took this picture of Leslie. We were getting ready to leave for the fall festival at our church. She just looked so cute in her dress and hat.

Here is Bobby sitting in the hay at the festival. He had fun playing the festival games. He had to dig through the hay to find a bag of treasures.

Leslie hung out with GG in the afternoon and watched all the kids who were painting pumpkins.

Bobby and Leslie's papa is the guy in the hat and skirt. He went up on stage to learn how to hula dance. Check out the skirt and those great legs.

Jason spent the day at the festival volunteering for the Knight of Columbus. Bobby and I both got the chance to dunk him in the dunk booth. Bobby really enjoyed watching his dad fall into the cold water.

Bobby is following in the Beckman family tradition of learning to play golf early. This was by far his favorite game of the day. I can only hope that he will some day be good enough to beat is father and grandpop at their favorite sport.
