My baby is growing up! Ty was baptized on Friday, April 17th, 2009. It was a wonderful baptism with Grandma Wagner, Grandpa and Nana Hacking, and Uncle Brad, Aunt Emily and cousins Braden, Dallin and Trevor in attendance, along with good family friends. Ty was really nervous before the baptism, but afterwards, he was just beaming. I tried to get him to write in his journal, but he didn't have much to say. On Sunday as we were driving in the car Ty said, "I just had the best experience of my life with Dad this weekend." I had to clarify and make sure he was talking about his baptism (which he was) because on Saturday he participated in his first pine wood derby race, and that was quite exciting, too. He is growing up fast and we couldn't be prouder of him!
Here are a few pictures from the big events of the weekend.

This is Ty after his baptism--doesn't his smile just say it all?
This was after his car won his first heat at the pinewood derby--the thrill!

Congrats Ty! What a special time for you! I can't believe you are old enough to be baptized! Maliya is excited that she will be baptized this summer. She says to tell you 'hi'.
P.S. Do you guys have any plans to be out in Utah this summer? It would be fun if our plans matched up :)
He is such a cutie! It is exciting, your first baptism! Congratulations!
I can't believe you have a 8 year old! What happen to us?! My baby is starting kindergarten this year, kind of twilight zoneish (have no idea how to spell that)
