Birthday and Baptism

I got to spend the past weekend at my in-laws cottage where we celebrated my niece's fourth birthday on the Saturday which went very well. It is scary how old my nieces and nephews are and how fast they are growing. On Sunday we had an afternoon church service at the cottage which saw three people(two teens and a young adult) get baptised in the lake. In spite of a brief rain shower all went well. It was great to see these three make a commitment such as this and reminded me of my baptism and the significance behind it as it was a public declaration of faith. All in all it was a good weekend.
