Justin was baptized and confirmed a member of The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-Day Saints by his Dad on June 5th. Justin was so excited and he told me how he felt so happy afterwards. Grandpa Davis gave a talk on baptism and Grandma Guptill gave the closing prayer at the Stake baptism. There were 5 children getting baptized that day and one of the girls was in Justin's 2nd grade class this year.
Grandpa and Grandma Guptill gave Justin his own set of scriptures with a red(Justin's favorite color)carrying case. Grandpa and Grandma Davis gave him a "Choose the Right" tie, a scripture hero poster for his bedroom and a really cool scripture marking mechanical pencil. Travis and I gave him his first personal journal. Aunt Nicki and Uncle Lance gave him a CTR tie tack and a fun scripture hero figurine.
Justin wanted a special BBQ dinner to celebrate. He requested rib-eye steak and grilled fish from our great fishing trip the day before. We felt so blessed to have so many family members with us to celebrate Justin's special day. We love you Justin!

He looks so grown up. What a handsome boy. Way to go, Justin. That is a very important decision to make and you feel so good about it the rest of your life.
What an exciting day! Did you just love it!? (You inspired me to post about Wyatt's baptism day.) Justin looks so grown up and handsome. Wyatt got a scripture hero poster too...Which one did Justin get?
Thanks Kirstin! Justin felt so special when he read your comment!
Jeri, it is the Daniel and the Lion's Den. I'm so glad you posted about Wyatt's baptism. I wanted to hear about it. He looked so happy in his picture!
Yay!!!! I just saw your baby belly shots, and you are so cute!!!! Thanks for posting them! You are due so soon.. in the next 2 months, right? I am still soooo excited for you to have a little girl. I've been meaning to call you and tell you Thank you for all the boy clothes... it's just been hectic here... We've been out of the house more than we've been in the house, and I still haven't looked through the two big bags you sent with Tammy. I'm excited to look through them and then I'll give you a call!!! Thanks a million! Tian has already been able to wear the Sunday clothes and some other outfits you've sent. We love you!
