Creed's Baptism

In our church when children turn the age of 8 they have the opportunity
to be baptized a member of it.

Creed has been looking forward to this day for a long time, but was always torn 
because he wanted to be able to share it with our extended family. 
Although Creed turned 8 in April he was very excited when we 
told him we could hold off and do his baptism in June
when we came back to America for his Aunt Sara's wedding.
I love it when things like this work out! :D


all the cousins in attendance performed a musical number during the baptism the younger ones were the
 singers and the older ones provided the music. It was beautiful.


What a blessing it is that my boys have such a wonderful Dad who is able to baptize them.

My brother and his wife were such great hosts for us while we were in Utah,
especially providing us a location for our BBQ afterwards and doing so much work.
 Can you tell the sun was very bright. :)

Congratulations to Creed! You all look great. Andrew was so excited to get Creed's baptism announcement, and so disappointed that we couldn't fit it in with our summer travel/moving plans. We miss you all!
