I Like to Look for Rainbows...

Yesterday was a very special day for our little Connor, he was baptized and confirmed a member of the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter Day Saints.  He was baptized and confirmed by his dad and we had lots of people there to support him.  His cousin MyKella was baptized as well, so it was a fun experience for them to share together.  MyKella's grandpa, Mike Beagley gave a wonderful talk on baptism and Grandma Debbie gave an adorable talk on the gift of the Holy Ghost.  It was such a spiritual day and it was so intriguing to talk to Connor about his testimony and how he felt about his baptism.  He said he was nervous at first but felt so good and clean after.  We talked a lot about what it meant to get baptized and today Connor and MyKella got to sit on the stand with the bishopric.  They were very reverent and looked so little sitting up there by themselves.

After the baptism we had ice cream sundaes and visited with great family and friends.  We were supposed to enjoy our sundaes under the pavilion at the church, but we were blessed with some much needed rain so we ate in the multi purpose room instead.  It was a wonderful day that I hope Connor will carry with him the rest of his life.
