It's Great To Be Eight

Cole was baptized today, and it was a great baptism. The program was beautiful...everyone did a great job! Grandma Halls gave the opening prayer, Grandpa Jensen gave the talk, Amber and the girls sang a musical number, Steve performed all the ordinances and Grandma Jensen gave the closing prayer. Thank you to those friends and family who joined us to celebrate the occasion.

It was fun being here in Hawaii for his baptism. Our ward is so loving and has completely embraced us. It is tradition to use lei's on many occasions, and Cole's baptism was one of them. The ward members who attended the baptism lei'd him and he looked sooo cute! Congratulations, we are so proud of you Cole!
