MJ's Baptism

Aug 3rd, 2013 was a blessed and beautiful day. MJ was baptized a member of the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter Day Saints. We had every member of my family and RB's family there. Plus some extended relatives and close friends. It was a nice relaxing day filed with smiles, love, and good memories. 

Here is MJ in her baptism dress.

Before the baptism we let MJ open her gifts from us. We gave her a church bag, a white hair bow, a CTR bubble ring, pens, a journal with testimonies in it of family members, and her own scriptures with her name engraved on them.

The before pics. We have a dear friend of ours who had a dress for her granddaughters. She let MJ wear it and MJ LOVED it.



After we had lunch at our house. My nephew and Buddy Boy had a great time reading books together.


Since we had all but my sisters husband here we had to take family pictures.




My sister being a great example for the younger children.

See how influenced they are by her. hehe.

I'm so grateful my brother and his kids were all able to make it. We haven't seen them for almost a year and it was great having them here with us.

Once family had left we went to the hotel my parents got and swam in the pool. Buddy freaked out for awhile. RB finally got him in the pool and playing for a little bit. Ms M on the other hand LOVED every minute in the water. She laughed, smiled, and had a great time.




It was a great day and I'm glad we could share it with so many.
