Yesterday McKay was baptized. It was so wonderful. We had lots of friends and family come and show their love and support and McKay was very excited.
He sat and listened rather well to the talks and he was excited to go into the font when it was his turn. He said an impromptu prayer before he was baptized and another one when he was confirmed.
It was a very spiritual and emotional day for everyone.
After the baptism service, we came home with friends and family and had a luncheon of nachos and cake. McKay usually is not a big fan of a lot of people at his house, but all night long he kept telling me about how he was going to have another party with "teachers and friends and family" and how we would have cake and cotton candy and how everyone loved him. He was SO happy. He went to bed last night talking to me and making up a story about how his teachers and family and friends would come over and what he would do for the party. When he woke up this morning he wondered where everyone was.
I love how happy and supported and loved McKay felt yesterday. We LOVE all our friends and family.

Sounds like you had a great day. He looks so grown up in the last picture.
Hey, we need to find a day soon when you aren't too busy and get the kids together and play!
Congratulations to McKay! I love the picture of him standing under the tree, and also the one of him with Darwin, because it is so uniquely McKay. You have gotten so many beautiful pics of him since learning to do the non-flash photography!
