Natalie was baptized in September along with her cousin Jaden. It was so fun to be able to have them share this experience. Natalie was SO excited to be baptized and become a member of the church. Eric baptized and confirmed Natalie and many members of our family were there to share in the special day. We are so proud of her for making this decision and for the great example she is setting for her younger sisters and brother.

Some highlights of the day:-The water was freezing not warm like Natalie and Eric were expecting
-Cameron tried to climb over the glass to get in the font (he did get one foot pretty close)
-Cameron saying he wants to get "bathtized"
-Kellan telling Cameron you need to be 8 to get baptized
-Someone (who shall remain nameless) cell phone rings saying "call from ..."
-The Bishopric member taking Avery from Joanna to use as a prop which none of us knew he was going to do (uh, why is that guy taking my baby?)
-My mom giving a fabulous talk even with a terrible migraine
-Joanna being a great sport and leading the music even if she just felt she was waving her arm around
-All the friends and family that came to support Natalie and our family
-Seeing my husband baptize and confirm Natalie
-Watching my daughter be baptized and confirmed

Still one of the best baptisms ever! And why did I think that bright green ribbon looked good with that dress?
CUTE CUTE pictures! What a fun and special day! But weren't we just 15? How do we have 8 year olds?
Geat pictures! All our baptism pics are with the cream cinderblock walls as the background. When I look at them I ALWAYS think... why did I not take the pictures outside?!? Glad you were smart enough! :)
oh, and that wasn't really Seth. but i suppose you guessed that! :)
Elizabeth you have such a beautiful family! I love the pictures and I can't believe how fast they are growing up. Chris is sitting by me and couldn't believe you have a daughter who was just baptized!! By the way, I love your snow party. You are so creative!!
