Logan's Baptism

We had an amazing day today. Logan decided to be baptized a member of the Church. We were so proud of his decision and were excited for this event in his life.
What we didn't expect was the overwhelming showing of support that we were shown. Not only did Logan have many family members there, he had many of his friends there.



Logan took the pre-baptism lessons from the Hooten's in our ward and Bishop Brock did his interview. His birthday is in September, but we waited until now because my parents were out of town on their cruise and because Colby and Emily were in town for Thanksgiving.

Before his baptism my dad (Grandpa Zobell) gave a great talk about baptism. After him, Grandma Lu gave a very personal talk about the Holy Ghost. She compared it to the light of the camping fires that we light when we go camping with them.

Next, Ryan performed the baptism. Logan was a little scared of the water, but he did great. Ryan also confirmed Logan and gave him the Holy Ghost. It was a very sacred day and one full of the spirit (at least when Maren wasn't screaming).

After the baptism we had everybody over to our new house for a little luncheon. Since we had only moved in a week before, not everything was put away, but enough to have the party. It was a great day and one we will remember forever!
