Noah was baptized by his Dad and it was an amazing event! His Grandma Ogden and Grandma Bird both gave talks that were so sweet and his cousins helped out with the special musical number. And best of all, he was baptized in Grandma Bird's pool!!
They clean up nice, don't they?
It was so great that we
were able to share this special day with both sets of grandparents. Aaron's parents came all the way from Salt Lake City and my parents were gracious enough to host the whole event at their home.
So here is why the time for the baptism kept changing....
The Cows!
My Dad spent the day down in Boise branding his cattle. It took a little longer than he expected and so we had to keep moving the time for the baptism until the cows had arrived!
Once it was all over, the kids headed to the pool for swimming and dessert!
After all that excitement over the cows and the baptism, we had 1 more event to celebrate that evening. The birth of a new calf!
What a busy day. But so fun and so exciting! We will always remember this special occasion. How could we not with all the excitement??

I am happy to hear that you have positive feelings about the crazy baptism event, and not frustrated ones!!
It really was such an amazing night, once the baptism event actually got started. I am so glad you all came up there to share it with us!
Hooray for Noah. Great choice, bud! And a baby cow to boot? pretty cool.
Wow that is a crazy day!
Congrats Noah, we are proud of you! And the new pool looks fun!
Is that considered sacrilege--swimming in the baptismal font? Looks like a blast and definitely a day to remember! Good job, Noah!
i'm glad you are such a patient person! I loved the baptism! It really was amazing. I think we will all remember Noah's baptism!
