Britton's Baptism and Christmas Around the World

Britton's Baptism

On December 1st of this year our Britton was able to be baptized into the True Church. We had the early time of 9:00 a.m. for his baptism. Of course we awoke to lots of snow and bad roads. We were glad that everyone made it in time. Britton was glad to see everyone.

We had the baptism with another little girl in our ward. Fortunately, we are good friends with them and do a babysitting group with them. Our friend Holly wanted to talk and thought it would be cool for each of us to talk at their baptism. So I had the privilege of talking on baptism.

It was a good baptism and we are so proud of Britton. We then had a yummy brunch afterwards at our home. Thanks to all who made it. It was a lot of fun visiting with family and seeing Elise our new addition to the family.

About 2 that afternoon Ashlyn was lucky to have been asked to perform in Christmas Around the World at BYU. Every 3-4 years they ask cloggers that aren't actually students to come and do a number. It was a lot of practices and many hours of work. But it was well worth it. She had a good time and enjoyed performing in front of such a huge amount of people. We are so glad she was able to do it.

Britton's Birthday and Reflections

BRITTON'S 8

Well our Britton has turned 8 years old. He had a wonderful birthday. He invited 8 of his closest friends to go to the bowling alley and go bowling. It was a good party for mom because her house didn't get destroyed and it required no planning. I think we will have every party there. It was a lot of fun. Mom made bowling cupcakes and we had pizza and drinks.

That evening after bowling we went to our school's Reflections Awards Night. Both kids took first in their divisions. Ashlyn did an awesome video of pictures she took while we were at Disneyland. Britton made a cool figure out for 3-D Art. They both received 10 dollars from ToyRus and decided they wanted to enter in every field next year. We just found out that Britton's has also won at Council Level and will continue to go on. We will let you know how he did.
