Allie's Baptism

Allie was baptized on her birthday, April 20, 2014.  Brent performed the baptism and confirmation.  We had mostly family in attendance.  Our friends the Torontos were also there.  Allie was really excited for the day. She was interviewed by the bishop the Wednesday before, which she was a little nervous about at first.  Right before the interview she said she had a good feeling.  Allie said the water in the font was cold, but when Brent said the prayer she felt warm all over.  Mamaw, Grammy, Pop Pop, Nana and Aunt Kathy came to share the day with us.  Allie was given special gifts to help her remember her special day.  We are so proud of Allie's decision to be baptized.  Everyone who meets her can feel her happy spirit.

 Now everyone knows where Allie gets her good looks, her handsome daddy.

I love this picture.  Allie looks so happy.  You can tell how excited she is.  All the kids were really excited for her.  They're all asking when it will be their turn to be baptized.  I'm sure it will be here before we know it.

Congratulations Allie!  We love you!
