Hayden's Baptism


Hayden got baptized on Saturday, June 5th. What a beautiful day it was! Grandma and Grandpa G were here for the occasion. Hayden was baptized by his dad, Grandma gave a great talk about baptism, and Mom cried. There were three other kids from our stake that got baptized, one other boy from our ward. Hayden was a bit relieved to have his friend there as he was feeling a little nervous. He knew he wanted to be baptised, but not sure about having someone dunk him under water.
Hayden is eight! How did that happen? He is becoming a very independant young man. Very energetic about life! I hope that he continues to work on making good choices and be an good example to his sisters who watch his every move. He takes such good care of them. I am very proud of him.



He chose to go to Granny's Buffet afterward to celebrate. He also played his final baseball game of the season and because he was feeling so great after baptism, he was able to turn a triple play all on his own. It was a very special day.

Congrats Hayden! I can't believe that you are so old, and baptized already.
