Becca's Baptism Day!

December 26, 2009 - The day after Christmas is a day Becca will always remember because that is the day she was baptized! And it turned out to be a great day to do it, because so many family members were already here visiting for Christmas! I will probably forever be frustrated at myself for getting there a couple minutes late. All the other parents got there early to make sure to take pictures of their kids, and I just sent Becca and Tristan ahead, and we came right as it started, thinking it would be a really long time for the kids to sit still. Anyway, luckily Becca's teacher and my Mom thought to take pictures!

(Here is Becca and her dad. Teresa made this beautiful dress for her to be baptized in.) Nancy Gallegos (their teacher), Kyra, Claire, and Becca. The whole class! They all happen to have December birthdays, so they all got to be baptized on the same day!

Anyway, I guess even if we didn't have a camera there, the important thing was not her smiling in her beautiful white dress, but her commiting to follow the Savior. We are very proud of Becca and her goodness, and her desire to please her Father in Heaven. This was a big step in her life and I know as she keeps her baptismal covenants and continues to follow the Savior in her life, she will be happy and have peace. We love you Becca!

Here is most of the people who came to support Becca - this was my desperate attempt to get some sort of pictures to represent the day. But we weren't able to find everyone after, so this is only a partial picture.

Then, we went to Fargos Pizza afterwards for lunch and enjoyed some yummy pizza!
