Walking down memory lane with the baptism of each of our children

June 3rd: I went through all our old family albums recently and found these precious photos of our children on the day of their individual baptisms. How I miss our sweet little children and their presence in our home! I love them more than words can say.

Sweet little Jared (8 years old) sets a good example for his siblings to follow
Beautiful little Jessica (8 years old) excited to take the plunge with her dad!
Adorable little Jacob (8 years old)  ready to experience his first saving ordinance
Cute little Sam (8 years old) anxious to be baptized!
The following photos are of family and friends who attended our children's baptisms. This one shows my dear friend, Pam Merrill and her oldest son, Sterling sitting on the pew with Jared before his baptism.

Wow - that was so hilarious to take that walk down memory lane! I don't remember seeing many of those pictures. We all looked so young and funny! Thanks, mom, for sharing! I also enjoyed your other posts! Looks like you and Dad are keeping super busy!
