Yesterday my sweet triplet niece and nephews were baptized! It was a beautiful service. We sang many beautiful songs and their ninety-year-old Great-Grandma on Hector's side gave a fantastic talk on the Holy Ghost! It was so wonderful to all be together as a family and see there precious kids take the important step of baptism. I made Sophia her pearl bracelet and got tie tacks for the boys that say "I am a child of God."
Before the baptism, we took the opportunity to take a picture of all the cousins who got baptized over this past year in their white clothes. Josiah was baptized last November, then Yazi in February, then Bella and then the triplets. What a special year for our family. And these cousins are so lucky to have each other!
Yvonne made a DELICIOUS meal for us--a huge taco bar all cooked and prepared by mostly herself ( we all helped chop some veggies!) It was soooooooo good!
This night was bittersweet because it meant our big, crazy family visit was over. Brenda and Cindy drove to Utah first thing in the morning from Yvonne's. So we all had to say our goodbyes last night. :( As I said before: How I wish we all lived close to each other!!!!
