Tucker's Birthday and Baptism





Tucker turned the big 8 the day after Twin Lakes. We were in Richland for his birthday and baptism. He started off the day with monkey bread for breakfast and opening presents from grandparents and aunts and uncles (he opened his presents from Trent and I before we left for Washington). We went to church on his birthday and he was sang to in primary. After church we had Cafe Rio for dinner. It was Tucker's request and he has very good taste. Thanks to everyone who helped make it.

His baptism took place on his birthday at 4:30 p.m. at the same baptism font where Trent was baptized. His grandpas were the witnesses and we had over 40 family members there to support Tucker on his special day. Both of his grandmas gave very good talks and Talia sang a beautiful musical number during the program. After his baptism Trent did a great job when he confirmed him. It was such a nice program. We were so grateful that Trent's parent's Bishop allowed us to have Tucker baptized in Richland and that there were so many family members there. Thank you to everyone that came.

After the baptism we gathered together at Trent's parents house to have dessert. Tucker wanted to have a chocolate fountain with fruit, cream puffs, cookies and marshmallows. It was delicious and was a very good evening spent with family. It was such a wonderful day and I hope that Tucker always remembers his 8th birthday and Baptism Day. We are so grateful for Tucker and for his kind and playful spirit. He brings much happiness to our family and I can't imagine life without him. I am so grateful that he chose to be baptized and I'm very proud of him.
