Saturday was a really special day. In the morning we started off by getting doughnuts and then going to the cemetery to visit around Dad's grave. We told stories and laughed and talked and it was really special to be there together as siblings with Mom. Erin had a migraine and originally said she wasn't going to be able to make it so we pulled her Picture off the wall and brought it with us so she was still there.. kind of.After a little bit Erin was able to rally and she arrived and was able to be there for some of the time which was nice. We were able to take pictures of all of us and have the remembrance of the time with all of us there.
We also brought Dad's picture and Joshua got flowers to bring for Dad.

After pictures and memories at the cemetery we all headed home to get ready for...Anita's baptism! This was a complete surprise for most of us when we found out a couple of days earlier that Anita was getting Baptized. Most of us did not even know she was taking the discussions but we were so happy for her and for Jeremy and were so excited that she was able to get Baptized on a day we all would be there.
Abigail is my little buddy and I love her so much. She is a mini Ashleigh and reminds me so much of Ashleigh when she was this little.
We were all waiting for Jeremy and Anita to come out so the program could start but it was taking them an awful long time. Heather told me I should go back and see if they need any help and me being the "fill in"oldest sister I went back to check on them. They were standing back there together not sure what to do and I explained to them that there was going to be an opening program before the actual Baptism. I am honestly surprised no-one filled them in on what was going to be happening. They came out and the program began
Jeremy Baptized Anita and Joshua did the confirmation. It was a really sweet baptism and I enjoyed watching Jere y Baptize his wife. After the Baptism we took pictures and had cake and ice cream.
