Layton's baptism

On June 4, 2011 Layton was baptized a member of The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints. In the afternoon before the baptism we drove down to Shoshone Falls and met Papa & Mama Barnes and Jenessa. The water was running really high so the falls were quite impressive.
After spending an hour at the falls we went home to eat sandwiches before heading up to the baptism. Layton was baptised at the Paul Idaho Stake Center by his dad. After a few pictures at the church we went back to our house for an ice cream bar. It was a great day! We are so proud of Layton and the choice he made to be baptised. He is such a great kid and we are so blessed to have him in our family.
Those in attendance at the baptism were Papa & Mama Barnes, Jenessa, Grandpa & Grandma Yearsley, Doug & Kathryn, Diana, Jeff, Amy, Maxton, Deagan, and of course our family.

Trey's special day

This past Saturday was a very special day . . . Trey was baptized! Most of our family members came early Saturday afternoon to hang out for a bit before the baptism. Thankfully it was a nice day and the kids were able to play outside. We had nachos with the works for dinner and I must say that the nachos were super yummy. Thanks to my dad for making the super yummy guacamole. It was a big hit! After eating it was a race to get dressed and over to the stake center for the baptism. Trey was the only person in the stake to be baptized this month so the whole meeting was for him. That was pretty neat. Sister Hansen from the stake primary presidency gave a great talk on baptism, the covenants made, and the confirmation. It was a great day! I am so proud of Trey and the choice he made to be baptized. What a great example he is setting for his younger brothers. We are so blessed to have him in our family! We love you Trey!
Thanks to all our family that was able to come and we missed those of you that were unable to be there!
