Nate's Baptism
















Theres something wonderful about watching someone so innocent and pure enter the waters of baptism. Nate looked so sweet dressed all in white, and his Father gave him a special blessing as he laid his hands on Nates head, along with his greatgrandfather and grandfather and friends. Its hard to believe how quickly time is going by and that Nate is already 8 years old. He is old enough to know the truth and wise enough to decide that he wants to be called a member of the church for the rest of his life. We are so proud of him and the choices he has made. We are also proud of both Jake and Cindy and their whole little family for living the good lives that they are and for being so loving and caring towards each other and all their extended families. Jen, JP and their family also came from Klamath Falls to be with us for the day. We went to their home for dinner and desserts before the baptism and the cousins all got to go to Nates ward for church together that day. Great Grandma and Grandpa Hill came as well as Jakes Father and Dubbie. That made for a full house. One of the sweetest things I saw during the daytime was all 5 of the older boys dressed in their white shirts and slacks floating down the lake on the boat together. From a distance it reminded me of what these boys will look like one day as Missionaries...its coming sooner than we think...Families are meant to be together forever...those of you who didnt get to come were missed and in our thoughts as always...
