the ringing of the bells!

It is a tradition at First Baptist to ring the church bells in honor of new babies in the church. The roof was being repaired during the latter part of 2005, so the bells were put on hold, but it was our turn so we took it! Knowing that I had a "plan" of sorts, Jordan saw fit to take a 30 minute nap the WHOLE day. She was awake, but not really by the time the bells started to play. (That would explain the relatively comatose look on her face!) But, the whole bell thing was pretty neat. They played Brahms lullaby, Jesus Loves Me, something else and then they pealed the bells. The pictures of the steeple are when they were clanging back and forth--not sure how much of that shows in the pics, though. It was also an extra special day because it is Mackenzie's 6th birthday--Happy Birthday little squirt!
PS--how do I end up in no pictures? :)
