This weekend Isaac was baptized and confirmed a member of the church. We had lots of family in town. Mara and Ryan came from Utah and Grandma and Grandpa Martin came and stayed with us from Grand Junction. All of our family here was also able to attend and Isaac was very proud and excited for this opportunity.



At the baptism Mara gave the talk on baptism and Grandpa Martin said the closing prayer. The Easton's and Howell's came to the baptism as did Mark Hodson, Mike Robison, Stephanie Campbell (our old baby sitter) and Corey Johnson from our ward. Uncle Ryan and Marcus were the witnesses for the baptism and after one dunk under water and two incorrect prayers Danny finally got the baptismal prayer and Isaac put under.



After the baptism we all came to our house for a great lunch. Most of the pictures are from there. We also celebrated Mara's birthday at the cheesecake factory later that night despite a 90 minute wait, OUCH!

On Sunday Isaac was confirmed with plenty of hands on his head and he was as joyous as could be. We are very excited for Isaac and the example he set for our family. What a wonderful young boy!

What a wonderful day it must have been! I wish I could have been there too, but I was thinking of you! You have an amazing son, you and Danny are to credit for that!
