Sammys Baptism Day!

On August 14, 2010 Sammy was Baptized and Confirmed a member of the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter Day Saints!  We have all been looking forward to this very special day!  Sammy has been reading her scriptures and praying and has really developed her own testimony!  We are so proud of her and love having her sweet spirit in our home...

Sammy was lucky enough to be Baptized the same day as her good friend Hallie!
Sammy is very brave...she told her entire class at school that she was going to be Baptized today and even invited her teacher to come...she was very excited when her teacher did show up!  (What a great teacher!)
The whole group...we are so blessed to live close to lots of family!
Sammy and her buddy Luke!

Adorable! Is her teacher even lds or did she have no clue what to expect? Great teacher indeed. Where did you get that awesome sub?

I was going to say we should get together. McKinley is DYING to get that backpack. I dont really have anything tomorrow if you want to get lunch or something. Sammy looks so grown up in this last picture with Luke.

She is just too cute and I can't believe that she's already 8 and baptized. I still remember her running around in diapers. Who says time doesn't fly when you're having fun?

Hi Kyle! Samantha looks darling! I love her baptism dress. And what a sweet girl to invite her teacher. It looks like a special day. Our kids are growing up too fast :)
