I Can't Wait Until I'm Eight!

On Saturday, May 3, 2008, Joseph and his cousin Anna were baptised by their fathers. It was a very special day. We were so happy to have Grandparents, aunts, uncles and cousins in attendance along with their families. We missed those that couldn't come. We enjoyed a delicious lazagna dinner at our church before the baptism. Thanks so much to everyone for coming to share this special day. As you can see from the pictures, the event was accompanied by a great deal of cousins playing together, a quick trip to Shoshone Falls. The guys watched some sporting events, and some people even swam (sorry, I don't have any photos of that). It was such a nice day. We are proud of Joseph and Anna for deciding to follow Jesus's example.
There are a ton of photos. Look at your leisure. When there are this many people, it requires a lot of pictures to capture the fun!

What a fun gathering. We are bummed that we missed it. Speaking of missing it. Did Mom and Dady, Leslie and Aaron, and our kids actually make it? They are not in any pictures not even in the background. I hope my kids weren't being too naughty to mix with their cousins on such a wonderful day.
Congratulations Anna and Joe.
We figured it out that we were being robbed during the actual baptisms. I really wish we had been with you guys instead.
