Dreytons Baptism/Birthday---And way too many pictures.

Dreyton was so excited, he had his birthday and baptism day both on the same day. He was excited but nervous but he did great! I'm so proud of him! It was such a great day. We had a small, but really nice, family get-together afterwards. The weather was perfect and the cousins were all able to play on the bonzai while the adults sat and relaxed. Three generations. What a great picture.

The amazing cake that Melanie made. It was awesome! Thanks for all the hard work Mel. I appreciate it tons!

Another pic of the amazing cake Melanie made. I felt guilty cutting into it....so I made Dustin do it. :)

Drey was embarrassed having everyone sing to him, that's why his head is in his shirt.
Little D doens't show emotion very often, but he couldn't hold back when he saw his new gun. He was soooo excited!

The amazing blanket that Camille made for Dreyton. It has his baptism day, baseball jersey number, and name on it.

His new scripture bag and scritures that he is so proud of.

Dustin's da' man!

So, it has taken 3 years of BEGGING and PLEADING, me drawing up plans, taking measuments many times, leaving reminders all over the house, and nothing was convincing Dustin of the great vision I had for our family room wall. Then I pulled out the best weapon a girl has....tears. My built-in was done in one week. Thanks Dust for all your hard work! Your amazing!

Here is what we had before. Blah. Boring. Hated it.

And it begins...

Jace helped me paint it. I am thankful that shelf will be covered by a door.

Almost done...

Yay!!! The final product!

I think he hated every second of this project. The words that were coming from that garage won't be written down on here. He said he would NEVER do another one again. I am hoping by the time we buy another house, he'll have forgotten about that though.
