Annie's Baptism

 Annie decided to be baptized. It was such a wonderful day. The Spirit was so strong. We loved having so many family and friends there to encourage Annie and show her how important they believe baptism is. It was a busy morning for Mommy setting up the luncheon, but things worked out ok in the end.
Annie was nervous about the baptism. She and Daddy practiced a lot at home. When she came out of the font she was just glowing - and couldn't stop shivering.
 After the luncheon we took some family pictures
Grammy and Grampy Hall
Puna and Papa Wanner
Mommy, Daddy, Tommy, Joey, Annie, Lily
 Elle, Annie, and Eden
 Drake, Jasmine, Annie, Amanda, Gabriel
 The Pugmires - Danielle, Elyse, Elle, Annie, Eden, Elijah, Emren, Ethan, David
 Annie got a blanket to remind her of the Holy Ghost, a set of scriptures, a scripture bag, a small hymn book, scripture marking pencils, and lots of love.

After friends and the Hall family left, we decided to go to Applebee's for dinner and try to squeeze in a game of bowling.
 Days like this always make me wish we lived closer to our families. We had so much fun together.
Seeing all the cute personalities come out during the bowling game was really fun.
Baby LeLe let us get in all of our baby snuggles. She was a joy to hold an play with. We really appreciate everyone making the time to come see us and here here for Annie. She was looking forward to this day for a long time and it was everything she hoped it would be.
We pray Annie will have a joyful journey on the covenant path back to our Father in Heaven.
