Bubby's Big Day!

In our religion (LDS, aka: Mormon) we are baptized at the age of 8. So Bubs turned 8 back in December, & well, since our stake follows the rules (grrr) & does Stake Baptisms, his should have been in January. Well, my sweet little boy asked me (before his b day) if he could wait to be baptized until the weather was nicer & the roads were clear so that Gammy & Papa (& the rest of my fam) could be here for him. Of course, we were all over that, so.... we ended up having to wait until this last weekend.

I'm not going to get into all of the "negatives" with how the baptism went, I'm going to focus on the positive... we had a WONDERFUL weekend with our family & had a great time with friends also. One of Bubs's BFF's got to be baptized at the same time, that was SO much fun for these 2 special little boys.

Anyway, here are a few of the pics from his special day...

CONGRATULATIONS Bubby! We are so proud of you & the decision you made, what a big step this was for you. We love you sweetheart!

***Ok, I just have to share this because it's just so "Bubby"... right after he got out of the font, he was in the changing room with Daddy drying off & changing back into his "regular" clothes. Dad looked at Bubs & said "Do you know that right now, you are perfect?" Bubby thought about that for about 2 seconds, then with a little smirk on his face, proceeded to punch dad in the stomach. He looked up & then said "Not anymore". LOL We all laughed so hard when Daddy came out & told us this story, it was just PERFECTLY Bubby! (No fear, that just opened up the discussion on why we take the sacrament every Sunday ;) so it's all good! )
