Bridgette's Baptism

We felt so blessed to be able to share with our special friends and family this wonderful time in Bridgette's life where she chose to be baptized and follow our Savior's example.  We are thankful for the family that came that drove many miles to support Bridgette in this decision.  Bridgette's cousins, Rylee, Katy, and Eden came with their dads, Deb's brothers, Rich, Dave, and Ryan from Utah. Grandma and Grandpa Smith sacrificed and took time off their mission in Provo, Utah, to be with us.  We were pleased to have Great Grandpa Ray and Great Grandma Helen Lowe come, as well as Deb and Stu's aunts and uncles and a few cousins.  Thank you to those who came and shared this special day with us.  We thank you to all who helped prepare and serve dinner in our home and for all the extra love and support we felt from you.  We are so blessed to have such wonderful friends and family in our lives.

We got Bridgette's picture taken in her baptism dress a while back and here are some of my favorites. Laura Shepard did an amazing job as her photographer!

 This is the day of the baptism, right before the program.
