Yesterday Was Daxton's 8th Birthday and he was also Baptized. It was a big day for him. These are the little announcements I sent out. I thought they turned out nice and covered both aspects of the day.
We had his Baptism in the morning, then soon after we had a Birthday party with swimming and all the fun stuff you do at Birthday parties. He was so happy to have so many of his friends and cousins there. He said it was a wonderful day. He was a little nervous about the actual physical part of being dunked in the water to get baptized. I don't know why because he is a great swimmer. Right after he was Baptized he said to his Dad "That was really cool" I'm glad it turned out so nice for him.
I think one of the best parts about the weekend was their Cousin Stephen spent the night Friday night and hung out with us for the weekend. They had so much fun together. I heard something about a "midnight snack" with some cookies.
When Daxton had his Baptism interview with the Bishop, we were quite impressed with his answers. The Bishop showed him a picture of John the Baptist baptizing Jesus. Dax kept asking "why is Jesus getting baptized when he is 22 not 8 yrs old?". The Bishop said Dax was very prepared for baptism.
