It was a major weekend; part one.


Mabel was baptized!

She was so happy. I was an emotional wreck. :) It was a very special night.

Afterward, we celebrated at Yodipity. Elliot was passed around. The kids all climbed on Ben. We ate lots of yumminess. A good time was had by all.


p.s. Don't Mabel and my dad have the same smile?

p.p.s. Go here to learn about why we get baptized.

  6. amanda,

    there are 12 oxen that support the baptismal font in our temples. they represent the 12 tribes of israel.

    mabel was baptized in our church building in a regular baptismal font. it just looks like a big sunken tub. :)
