It's hard to believe but the BIG day finally came for my 8-year-old to get baptized! As you can see by the grin on Dallin's face, he's really excited!

You'll notice a car DVD player in the middle. My Mom & Ashley made Dallin a video of his entire life. They had to scan most of the pictures and even put them to music. It turned out beautifully. Thanks for such a nice, personal gift!

My Mom gave the talk on the Holy Ghost. The talk was so well done; it had tons of visuals and really focused on both boys (Dallin Johnson & Michael Burns) there for their baptism and receiving the gift of the Holy Ghost. As part of the talk, they each received a comforter. They loved their blankets (they were still cold from their baptism too) and didn't want to put them down! I love seeing Dallin's new comforter; it's a good reminder of him receiving a special gift.

All of the family that came from Houston, TX and Snowflake, AZ for the baptism. Thanks for all of the support. It was the most spiritual baptism I've been to. I'm grateful that Dallin chose to be baptized.

That's awesome. Does your mom have a copy of her talk?

What an awesome day! Love that first picture of your family.
I am glad we could come!
Congratulations, Dallin! Dallin looks SO happy! And I love all of the family pictures- everyone looks great. I heard what a special event this was and that the Spirit was very strong. I've been looking forward to this post!
Great report and pictures on Dallin & Michael's baptism. It was a very spiritual baptism with lots of people there. So glad we could be there and participate in the program.
