Baptism

It was a beautiful day!
Joey was so happy and so eager.
 Peter was ready - a worthy priesthood holder and father that has taught Joey so much that helped him to be ready and to make this wonderful decision.
 We were so happy to support him.  We had both sets of grandparents, my brother Derick with his wife Tammy and there three kids (Carson, Kennady, and Kate), the Larsen Family came up from Houston, the Ostermiller's who are like adopted family, and the Websters, the missionaries, the Nelson's (Joey's primary teachers) and the Bishop.  
 Grandma Rabner spoke on Baptism and Grandma Bird spoke on the Holy Ghost.  
The water was warm and
Joey was baptized and it was great! 
He really did look different afterwards- he was glowing.  
I am so proud of you Joey and your choice to be baptized.
I promise it will be the best thing in your life.  You will come to cherish your membership in this true church and the companionship of the Holy Ghost will guide you throughout your life and provide you comfort and reassurance that you are a child of God.
We love you!
