Shaylie's big day finally arrived! Yay...we are so proud of her...she was so excited to be baptized and join the church for real! She has been looking forward to it for weeks. It's been interesting to see her learn about the ordinances of baptism and confirmation in Primary and Family Home Evening and ask all the best questions and really figure out for herself that she wanted to do this! She looked beautiful in her white dress...thanks Grandma J!...I will post pictures as soon as I get them from Scott!
Thanks to all of our family for sending your best wishes and beautiful gifts. She loved her necklace, bracelet, pillow case, scrapbook and everything else. Scott and I gave her her own set of Scriptures and case, which she promptly began reading from page 1 of the Quadruple combination...for those of you who don't know what that is, it is the entire cannon of LDS scriptures in one book (Old & New Testament, Book of Mormon, Doctrine & Covenants, Pearl of Great Price)...and the first page is a declaration from King James regarding the translation. She read the whole thing and then asked me who this James guy is...she makes me laugh! She is so dang smart!
Scott did a great job with the priesthood ordinances. He gave Shaylie a beautiful blessing and we are so grateful for the wonderful husband and father that he is. Way to go, hon! Both of you...you are amazing!
Hi again, I got to the pictures, WOW Shaylie did you ever look beautiful, everyone else look great and very handsome. Love Ya
