Carter's Baptism


First things first....could you get much cuter than this little guy? This is Carter just after he was baptized and confirmed a member of the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-Day Saints. I can't believe how fast the time goes...and there is definitely something about the age of 8. They just start to grasp things.
So, I have to record this story because....well, I love it. Back in January Carter attended a "It's Great to Be 8" program to prepare for his baptism. Our Bishop was speaking and asking everyone there to think of a superhero. Carter raised his hand high in the air and I couldn't wait to hear what he said....maybe Mr. Incredible? Batman? Phil Donahue for his early breakthrough in talk shows? No. He said, "MY MOM." That is my sweet boy for ya!!! (Now you see why I love that story?)
Here's another funny...the second after Carter was baptized and came up out of the water, Tate says loud enough for everyone to hear, "That was awwwesome!" And it was awesome.
Thank you to everyone who made it to Carter's special day. I know it meant a lot to Carter to have his family near him, and it meant a lot to us too.

Lastly, check out this sandwich. A shout-out to Steve's Krazy Subs for this bad boy. Yum!
