Nathan gets baptized

Friday, the 4th of July was a very exciting day for Nathan, he finally turned 8 years old and was ready to be baptized. So on Saturday, July 5th, the whole family gathered to watch Nathan be baptized. Even though it was a stake baptism, we were fortunate to have Dave Seamons give the talk on baptism and the Holy Ghost (Our family was asked to find someone to speak and Nathan chose his Uncle Dave). Most of the family was able to make it. We had all of Nathan's grandparents (even his great grandma) there and most of his aunts and uncles and cousins made it to the event. After his baptism, the whole family gathered at our place for a huge barbecue.

At the baptism we had: Lynn and Caralee Seamons; Martin, Isabel Seamons with Bradley; Dave and Mary Seamons with Brian; Rob and Karla Seamons with their kids Jeffrey, Joseph, Courtney, Meagan, Aubrey and Benjamin; David and Penny Wilkinson; Scott Wilkinson; Brad and Melissa Stephens with Matthew, Adam and Camille; Grandma Great Hellewell; and of course our family.

Congratulations, Nathan. By the way, we still have your present. We'll bring it with us to the beach! See you then.
