Carter's Baptism

The first Saturday in May was a very special day for our family.  Carter chose to be baptized a member of The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter Day Saints!  This kid was so excited for this day.  He had watched his two older brothers and several of his cousins be baptized and was counting down the days.


Carter chose his dad to baptize him.  
He looks up to his daddy so much! 



Aunt Wendy made this awesome Baptism towel for Carter.  Along with this little poem about the towel.  She is so talented!  I love that he has something that he can keep and use daily to remind him of this special day.

Carter and Bishop Murray
We love Bishop Murray!!  Seriously the greatest Bishop out there!  He had the sweetest things to say about Carter and great advice for the rest of us.  Such a HERO in my boys eyes.

Carter was lucky enough to have his own baptism!  It was really surprising considering all of the kids in our ward turning eight this year.  Being the only kid being baptized that day meant we had to do the whole program.  My family was so sweet to step up and help us out.  He asked my dad and my grandpa to be the two witnesses.



Of course afterwards we had to have a big luncheon to celebrate!!!  What can I say, my family loves food:)  I am so thankful for all of our family and friends who came to make this day special for Carter!  He is one in a million and we love him to pieces!
