We kept to tradition and Grandpa Stout (Jeffs Dad) took on the priviledge to be the one to baptize and confirm Trevor....we were very excited that he was willing to do this for Trevor. He also baptized AJ and myself when we were baptized in January 2007.
After the children were baptized everyone that wanted to was given the opportunity to write something on a piece of paper to each of the children and they were put in a jar with their names on it. When we got home Trevor went to his room by himself and sat on his bed and read each and every one of his to himself.....he said he wanted to keep them just for him because they were important to him.
Thank you everyone that came and participated in Trevors baptism!
Thank You AJ for saying the opening prayer, Thank You Darci Cole (Sister Shumway) for singing The Baptism Song, Thank You Matt Dean for being a witness to his baptism and part of his confirmation, Thank You "Uncle" Matt for being a witness to his baptism and part of his confirmation, Thank You Brother Curtin for being a part of his confirmation and Thank You Grandpa Stout for baptizing and confirming Trevor and saying the closing prayer.
You all made Trevors day special and we appreciate all of you.
And the scripture studying has begun! Grandma and Grandpa Stout gave Trevor his first full set of scriptures in his favorite color BLUE in a holder also in his favorite color BLUE! He's enjoying flipping through the pages and finding random scriptures. Now when we read scriptures each night he doesn't have to use his moms!!!Trevor we are so proud of you and love you so much and we know that you will continue to make Heavenly Father proud of you in everything that you do. Remember that warm feeling you felt when you received the Holy Ghost and don't let that feeling go away.
