This has been a few weeks of celebrating Brayden!
On New Years Day he got baptized!!!!! That should be an easy date to remember... 1/1/11.
His grandparents, cousins, and friends came to watch him get baptized and officially become a member of our church. He was SO excited to get baptized!! He got his very own set of black scriptures and a black carrying case, just like his Dad's.... just as he had requested. He got his own small Hymn book and a new white shirt, belt, and tie for the big day!
It was quite surreal to watch my own child get baptized. I guess I'm still in denial that he's that old! On our way home from the church, I asked him how he felt now that he was baptized and he answered with a very enthusiastic "HAPPY!! SO HAPPY!" I love it! It makes my heart so happy that he was so happy to get baptized and to become part of this gospel that we love so much and to be such a great example to his little brothers.
We went home and enjoyed a great dinner with our family and some friends that had traveled so far and in horrible weather to be with him on his baptism day. We ate good food, laughed, and visited while the kids ran around and played and had a great time.
Thank you to all who came from near and far. We all appreciated it. It was a wonderful day that I will always remember!
