8 is great!

Saturday was the big day, the day our oldest got Baptized a member of

The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter Day Saints . 

It was an extremely surreal moment in my life. I have attended a lot of batisms over the years 

but to actually have it be my own child was precious beyond words.

I am very proud and honored to be the parent of such a great boy and his decision to take this important step.

We were even more blessed on this day to share it with some of our beloved family and dear friends.

(and just for good measure, the boy was dunked twice....there just happened

to be an error in the first prayer.  coincindence?!?)  :D
