Honey's Baptism

Our family belongs to The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-Day Saints.  In our church you get baptized when you turn eight years old.  Honey was lucky to share her baptism day with her cousin.  It was so great to share this special day with both sides of our family.  I was going to have a friend of mine take professional pictures of Honey however time seemed to escape me and I found myself rushing to get her pictures taken in her baptism dress.  A day or two before I needed them to make the baptism program I ran to the temple grounds and tried to get some pictures.  It was SO HOT when we got there.  It was only around 10 in the morning and it was about 90 degrees.  So we made it quick and did the best we could.  This is obviously my disclaimer on the pictures that follow.  On a side note . . . something that's kind of funny . . . I made her dress and didn't realize how shear the fabric was.  I realized this as we were stepping out the door to go take pictures.  I didn't think it would be very appropriate if you saw her underwear in the pictures so we ran to Target to try and find a slip.  However, Target at the time didn't have slips for girls.  Of course!!!  So I had to buy a women's XS slip and then use a rubber band that I had in the car to tie it up around her chest so it wouldn't be to long or fall of her.  So AWESOME!!! Keepin' it real!
