Danny's Baptism

Danny was baptized on May 1. We're so proud of him. He's such a wonderful boy. Gma Zonda and Gpa Cliff and Dustin, Kristal and Casey came and Gma Linda and Trina. We left the younger kids at home for lunch so it was just a special time for Danny. He requested that we got to Red Lobster for his lunch-he loves seafood and wanted to try lobster. He ordered a huge plate with lobster tail and two kinds of shrimp. He loved it. And Aaron and Rachel loved his leftovers!

The baptism started at 4:00. Everything went great. He said he felt the spirit there and he was happy. He taught family home evening on the Monday after so it was great to hear him talk about it. He has a great testimony that just keeps growing.

After the baptism we all went to Uswirl--the kid's favorite ice cream place. He got a few gifts--a CTR tie and a book for him to write his memories in and Rachel made him a new pillow case. Sandy and May, our wonderful next-door neighbors came. We were so glad they could make it. They seemed to enjoy it, although it was a little crowded and there was a lot of shuffling of rooms because it was a stake baptism and there were several kids being baptized this month. But they were genuinely interested and happy to be there.

Wow! Congratulations to Danny:-) I can't believe that he's old enough to get baptized. It sounds like it was a wonderful day for you guys. Love you!
