This past weekend, Brent was re-baptized. He was baptized when he was 11, but looking back he did not feel that he was truly saved. Since then, he has re-evaluated his testimony and found that he believes the Lord to have called him in early college. That being the case, he wanted to be baptized again, this time as a true believer and child of God. What a happy and joyous day for us and we were reminded of what a gift salvation is from the Lord. Pastor Dan preached an excellent sermon on babtism (you can go to our church website at http://www.cbcfortworth.org/ to hear it) and then Brent and five others were baptized. Praise the Lord! :)







After the babtism, my parents (who had come up to support Brent in his baptism) stayed a few extra days and we went to the Botanic Gardens and spent a beautiful afternoon enjoying God's creation.


There is a pretty fish tank that Peter always loves to look at and try to 'find Nemo'. :)




We have had so much rain that all of the flowers were in full bloom and smelling wonderful! This was a rare time that I was thankful for the 'pregnancy nose'!



Walking the board walk - one of my favorite places!

The O's (including Baby 0!) in front of the garden's oldest pecan tree - they say about 200 years old!
