Lena's Baptism



Hi friends! How are you this beautiful Sunday morning? We have so much to be thankful for don't we? Today I feel so blessed because of our family. So I thought because of that I would share Lena's baptism pages with you. God blessed us with this beautiful little girl last June and our hearts haven't been the same since! I was so proud of Whitney on this day, a single mother making these choices for her child. As the priest was making the blessing on Angelina I looked over at Whitney, my eyes welled up with tears, and at that moment she looked at me the same way. We didn't need to say anything because we were both full of the love of the Holy Spirit and at that moment Angelina became forever a child of God! How do you scrapbook that? I wanted to make a simple page using a very pale shade of pink so that is the base of the layout...in these pictures it looks more white, but really it's pink. The brown is from SU and it's Close to Cocoa. The bottom edge of the brown paper I used the EK boarder punch called Apron Strings, and added a little bit of rhinestone bling from Prima on the side there. The faith BINGO card is by Jenny Bowlin and the little rhinestone hearts I picked up at Michaels.

Oh...by the way did you notice the background change? Yes...I thought it was time to "move the furniture around"! My creative little mind likes to change things up every now and then. Thanks for peekin' in! We got our AC fixed on Monday this week! Thank God because this week has been terrible for heat here...one day the heat index hit 115! Can you believe that? Sheesh that is hot! The kids have 2 more weeks of summer camp and then school will be starting shortly after that....can you believe how fast this summer has gone? Haley will be a sophomore and Sidney will be in 7th grade! Where oh where have my little ones gone?

Have a fabulous week friends! Take care of you!

I really like the way you were able to journal the feelings of Lena's baptism. That can be the hardest part of doing a page.
