Baptism Day

Tyler is such a handsome 8 year old in his suit.



Family picture time!! Before heading over to the Stake Center we had a to take a few pictures.
Grandpa Lemon came over and timed Tyler holding his breath making sure he would be able to hold it long enough to get baptized. Nicole and Ben joined in as well and it became a contestNikki won.

Tyler and Craig all dressed in white on this very special day. I am so proud of Tyler and his decision he made to be baptized. He made this decision a very long time ago, and was glad the day finally came.

During the baptism program Grandma Lemon gave the talk about baptism. She related it to sports and that these past 7 years in his life he has been red shirting (preparing) to be on the Lords team. The talk couldn't have been more perfect. Then Craig baptized him, followed by myself giving the talk on the Holy Ghost. He was then confirmed. It was such a special day full of support from family and friends.

After the baptism we went to our house for food, and then at 2 p.m. Tyler, Craig, Sara, Steve, Whitnee, and Austin Woodhouse headed to the BYU vs. Utah basketball game. While I went to the church to set up for the ward sweethearts party.
