Graham's Baptism

Graham has been waiting for this day for a long time. He was so excited to get baptized. He was so happy to have his new tie, black pants (instead of tan), and a new white shirt.
They look so handsome in their white clothes. Jason was laughing because his jumpsuit was a little bit too small and it fit like capris. Graham's friend told him that when he wore his jumpsuit he felt like a doctor or a race car driver.
When Graham and Jason got into the font Jonah got as close as he could, nose pressed against the glass and asked Jason, "You in the cool (pool) dad?"
We felt so blessed that our families were able to come and support Graham. Jenny and Tiffany's family both traveled 2hrs. and Chelsea's family travelled 12hrs!

When I taught 2nd grade I was able to attend some of my kids baptisms. So I thought it was especially neat when Graham's teacher Miss. Knudsen came to support Graham.
After we came back to our house for lunch. Jason requested the homemade tomato soup (the recipe is Heather Miller's in the latest ward cookbook) and his dry ice ice cream that his dad helped him make.
Thanks for being such a good example Graham!

I just caught up on your lives for the last little bit... funsie! We think Graham is awesome and I'm so happy for him that he got baptized! I was thinking that we should go to the mascot game thing next year, but I have a Jack so I'm not so sure about that.

I can not believe that little Graham is 8 yrs. old! I remember him being 3! He is such a handsome guy. I'm glad that his baptism was so special for him and so many of your family were able to travel so far to come.
