Madisons Baptism Day

Madison chose to be baptized a member of the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints, Saturday, March 28, 2009. We had a few family members down to join us for her special day. We appreciate their support and love. We love Madison and are so proud of the special girl she has become.

These three girls are all in the same primary class and were able to be baptized on the same day. Our ward had their own session from the Stake.

Today was bitter sweet. I felt a void not having my dad to celebrate this
special day with us. I sure do miss him.

Aunt Karen was also not able to come to Maddy's baptism. She had gotten really sick while we were in Hawaii and spent almost a week recovering from pnemonia and ARDS. She is getting better each day and will be returning to work soon. We missed her.

What a special day! I know what you mean, feeling a void without your dad there. Taysa was baptized in August of the same year my dad passed away. It's hard. I love the pictures of the family. It looks like it turned out to be a really good day :)

Wow, thanks Kim, for sharing this special day with us. We wish we could have been there. Love to you all, and happy for Madison. Miss you guys.

You asked me a question a while back. I can't remember the question, can you? Sorry. Love you. Hope this finds you all well.
