Having turned eight years old in December, Shad had the opportunity to be baptized this month and we've all shared in his excitement. With me having been out of town for work up until the night before and everything else going on, the day was pretty hectic, but we got through it with everyone's help.
This is Shad with his proud parents:

Important note: I was much more enthusiastic about the event than this picture seems to indicate. I don't know what the deal was/is with this picture.
Shad was a little nervous leading up to it and being the center of attention. He was pretty surprised at how warm the water was in the font and he let everyone know.

After numerous food-related delays, we got to have lunch with those who came to support Shad:
All of us were very grateful that so many were able to come and share the day with Shad.

Holy Cow, you guys look FANTASTIC! I really need to see you, it has been way too long!
Way to go Shad! We were sad we weren't ablt to go but we are very proud of him! After baptizing people on your mission did it ever make you think of the day that you would actually baptize your own children? That's really cool!
