Gabriella’s Baby Dedication

Posted: January 31, 2012 | Author: lifethroughmyeyes | Filed under: Gabriella |1 Comment

Saturday night was the Baby Dedication service at our church. We were honored to have several of our family members and friends in attendance to celebrate our dedication of Gabriella to the Lord. This service is a special time to commit Gabriella’s future to God in the presence of our church family and have them pray a special blessing over our baby girl. God has done great things already in the life of our little girl in the past 3.5 months and we know He has great things in store for her future!

Direct your children onto the right path,
and when they are older, they will not leave it.

Proverbs 22:6

Here are a few of the pictures we managed to get. I’ll probably do another post later when I receive the pictures from our church and our parents 🙂

Gabriella and I are so blessed to have these two HANDSOME men in our lives!

We love serving alongside our pastors, Mike and Renae Goolsbay!

Pastor Mike did his best to get us all in a shot while he held the camera…didn’t work out so great, but it’s a cute pic of Gabriella!

One of SEVERAL attempts to get both kids looking at the camera at the same time…

P.S. Gabriella’s adorable outfit is from Baby Gap. Her Uncle Chris bought it for her for Christmas, and cousin Shera topped the outfit off with the adorable ballet flats 🙂 I made her bow using this tutorial.

After the dedication service, Nick’s parents hosted a nice dinner with family and friends. I was busy taking care of Gabriella most of the night, but when I got home and was looking at Facebook, I saw these hilarious pictures that cousins, Jarred and Joel, took with Reuben. I’m so thankful for the way they love our boy!
