Maelie's baptism

Maelie's baptism: Maelie was baptized on her birthday June 4th at 10am.

Maelie and her dad. (his choice in white clothes were sizes 4x or small. He opted for loose over tight. :)
















I was really touched by how many people came to her baptism. Below are pictures of most of them.

Rachel (her husband and son came too)


The Ayers (a wonderful family that live in our neighborhood that we go visit often).


Shauna and Logan Miller (we serve in nursery together)


The Shumways (a resident that works with Denver and his family)


The Durlands (friends from the ward)


Sister Shepherd, the Ringo girls, Shalon and Ben Gardner, Dale Helfer, two of the Wrights, the Gibsons, and the Jorgensens.


The Jones' (another resident that works with Denver and his family)

Deor (her husband is in the bishopric and gave closing comments. He has the same birthday as Maelie.


Grandpa and Grandma Palmer gave good talks on Baptism and the Holy Ghost.

We had cookies and milk after. Mmmmm


It was a good day for Maelie and the family! We are so proud of Maelie and the life she lives and the decisions she makes.
