Madison's Baptism

My oldest daughter Madison turned 8 on November 22nd 2011.  In my religion (LDS) when a child turns 8, they get to choose if they want to be baptized.  Madison made that choice with such drive and purpose. She was more then ready!!!

It was such a very special day.  Grandma and Grandpa Burgess came out from California to be there for the baptism.  Grandma played the piano for all of the songs and she also gave a wonderful talk on the Holy Ghost.  Daddy gave a talk about Baptism and it was so special.  Brooklyn, Jacquelynn and Madions all sang a song together.  Although it did not go off as rehearsed, it was special in its own special way!

Daddy performed the baptism while Uncle Josh and Uncle Kim were the witnesses, and it was wonderful.

It was a very beautiful and special day!

























So very behind!







We have been so busy in our home.  So busy that I have put off my blogging.  Luckily Eddie has been keeping up the Daddy's Outnumbered Page on Facebook.  That is another great way to keep up with our family.

So this past Christmas we put together a list of all the fun, festive things we wanted to do as a family.  We had a wonderful Holiday Season.

My most favorite thing we did was, going to Temple Square to see the Lights.  Eddie and the girls had never been to see the lights at temple square.  So off we went.

Basically how it went was, Crowded, freezing, beautiful, freezing, too many people, COLD!

So there you have it.  It was awesome, but it was FREEZING!
