Rylee's Special Day

The day finally arrived for Rylee. She waited so patiently to turn eight. However, she wasn't prepared to wait for her baptism. For the past two weeks that is all she has thought about. She prepared family home evening lessons and proudly gave them. She went to her bishop's interview and came back all smiles. Why wouldn't April 24th come. Finally, the weekend arrived and so did family members eager to share her day. I don't think the smile ever left her face the whole time.

Annie, Rylee, and Kate

They are good friends and were excited to share the special day with each other. They planned the program together and picked out their favorite songs to sing. They also sang "I am a Child of God" for a musical number.

The Party...The Food

We had great weather, lots of family, lots of food, all to celebrate a special girl.

On our way home her comment was we wait and wait for this day to come. You never want it to end, because you will never have another day like this since you only get baptised once.
