Finally! We are writing about Timmy's Baptism day. He was baptized on December 8th, 2008. He was so excited that he could hardly wait for the day to finally come. On the lower left he is pictured with his Gus (Dad) and his cousin Ethan Black (who was baptized by his dad, Uncle Bob). Timmy waited a month so that he could do it with his cousin up in Ogden, Utah. One the far left is a picture of our family before the meeting. It was a great experience!
The Hart Aunts, Uncles, and Grandparents from Idaho came and so did the Levitre cousins & Grandparents from Utah. After the baptism, Timmy said he "felt good" and was happy. After that, he received a Priesthood blessing & was given the gift of the Holy Ghost to guide him through his life. The Grand kids sang a beautiful song & the Grandmas gave the opening and closing prayers. To the left is Timmy after his Baptism.
After the Baptism, we went over to Aunt Lisa & Uncle Bob Black's house. They made delicious BBQ pork sandwiches with lots of trimmings, salad, and chips with soda. It was an inside picnic. The day was beautiful and warm for December.
We appreciate all the driving, cooking, and effort that everyone contributed to make this a wonderful occasion.
We love Timmy! We all love his gentleness, eagerness, enthusiasm, good heart. We are pleased that he wanted to be a witness for Jesus Christ & follow him by being baptized. We have great hope his choice will bring him happiness!

Just so you know, it's not that I am an uncle that doesn't care. I was really bummed when I found out that the baptism was on the same day as the last SAT. Stupid me for waiting... Sorry Tim and Ethan.
Yea!!! You are back! Thanks for the Christmas card - I love reading about your family. I'm glad you had a nice Christmas.
Congratulations, Timmy!
