Special Baptism Evening with Family

Another Special Night for Miaja...


Now that's one happy girl...surrounded by a couple of her favorite guys!
Mom, dad & brothers gave Miaja her first set of scriptures with her name on the front...she's already gotten some good use out of this book!
Grandma Coombs & great-grandma Coombs made some very special pillows to go with the comforter I made for Miaja. I was so touched by how much work Bonny put into these pillows, plus helping Bruce's mom, (who has some health challenges), start a pillow as well. So very, very special.
Mommy & Miaja with her baptism "comforter". Making this was such an experience. I've never made a quilt )from scratch) ALONE..but it was worth every stitch. I hope my little angel always remembers the gift that she was given on her baptismal day and the immeasurable comfort it can and will bring!
What a gift for Miaja to get to have BOTH sets of grandparents there for her special day...
Grandma & Grandpa Vorkink brought a towel w/ her name embroidered on it and a baptism book w/ bracelet. Grandma Vorkink and Great-grandma Beverly are also working on their pillows for Miaja to match her quilt. I am SO grateful for such beautiful and wonderful grandmothers so willing to share their talents and love with Miaja!
