On February 26th we celebrated Davis’s 8th birthday. Hurrah! He enjoyed his special day, and he was glad to receive a GameBoy Advance SP along with a couple of games to go with it. His birthday cake was rather interesting. Jeanine made it in the likeness of a cow as per Davis’s desire (for some strange reason Davis has an affinity for cows of late). After we enjoyed a dinner of Papa John’s pizza, Davis’s grandparents came over to enjoy some snacks and some ice cream and cow cake. From them, Davis received one of life’s most sought after items—money!
Two days after his birthday, Davis got baptized by yours truly. He is now a full-fledged member of Christ’s church. The event went well, and the Spirit of the Lord was felt. At the service, Benjamin gave a talk about the Holy Ghost, and Jeanine was asked by the bishop to bear her testimony, which of course, she did. Acting as witnesses to the baptismal ordinance were Jeanine’s dad and my brother-in-law, Blair. Those who stood in the circle during Davis’s confirmation were Blair; my brother, Curt; my nephew-in-law, Derk; Jeanine’s dad; and Bishop Moyes. I had the privilege and pleasure of performing the confirmation.
Here are a few photos from the baptism:
