Dalton's Baptism


We have been preparing him for this for the last 4 months or so (maybe his whole life really), and I'd say that he was ready.

Everything went beautifully with the help of a ton of people. Thank you Grandma and Grandpa "C", Abuella and Grandpa Nelson, and Mike, Stacie, Nik and Harley for traveling so far to be a special part of Dalton's baptism. Thank you Annette, Tasha, Jessica, Shellie, Joey, and Brayden for the actual set-up, and behind the scenes organization. And, thank you to all of our friends who came from all over the Utah, Salt Lake, and Davis counties to share this day with us.

Some highlights include: Dalton listening so intently to every single one of Grandpa Nelson's words on Baptism. All of the little children sitting up front (most of them very reverently) during the whole program. Doug performing the baptism and confirmation with perfect attention to the spirit. Uncle Mike's talk on the Holy Ghost being felt by all. And Dalton giving hugs to everyone whose hands were upon his head.

Thank you, Sherrie, for the delicious soups and homemade breads! Thank you, neighbors for the crock pots and for baking the beautiful cookies.
