Buddy's baptism

Buddy was baptized on Saturday, May 16, 2009 in Katy, Texas. He was baptized the same day as his friend Hayden Pope. We had a lot of family and friends come to support him. Among those that came were Grandad & Grandma JoAnn, Nona, Aunt Zoie, Hyrum, and Emilee, Aunt Serena and Kevin, Christensen's, Elliotts, Jill Sampson, Hannah Clarke, Mrs. Bellinghausen (Buddy's 2nd grade teacher), Bauers, and many more. We are so thankful for those that were able to make it and know that there were many more who wanted to be there. We appreciate all of your love and support.

That day was very busy. Not only did Buddy get baptized but he had two baseball games and it was his birthday. Needless to say we were on the go all day long. Buddy, however, played a great baseball game that day in the rain.

We are very proud of Buddy and the choices that he has made thus far in his life. He is a huge blessing in our lives. His smile can brighten even the cloudiest of days. He is so sweet and caring to all those around and his brothers and sister love to be around him. He is truly one of the greatest joys in my life. I consider it a huge honor to be his mom and to watch him grow and learn each day.
