Braden's Baptism


Braden turned 8 last month and made the wonderful decision to be baptized on Saturday, August 6th.  There was a short and sweet little program with 2 speakers and a song sung by primary children before the stake baptisms began.  Braden was baptized by his dad and then everyone gathered in another room for the closing prayer.  After the prayer, Braden handed out these little 'thank-you's that we put together. Sugar cookie boys and a "B" for Braden.  The tag says "it's great to be eight! Thanks for coming to my baptism!"  We took a few pictures outside and then headed to our house for dinner.
For dinner we had a homemade macaroni & cheese bar and this jello.  It was all yummy and everyone loved putting toppings of their choosing on their mac n cheese.  The toppings were: mini pepperoni, panko, italian cheese, bacon, salsa, fresh tomato, chulla, and french fried onions.  We had cookies for dessert.
Braden was confirmed (also by his dad) on Sunday, August 7th in our ward's Sacrament meeting.  Braden got to share a bit about his baptism experience in Primary sharing time.
Thanks to everyone who was able to come and participate!  We sure missed those who weren't able to be there!
