Jacob's Baptism

Jacob was baptized on Saturday and it was a great day!
We were so lucky to have both sets of grandparents, great grandma, and Layna and Jason and their family come for the baptism. Jacob invited his school and music teacher and we were happy they both came. Jacob is such a good missionary!
We are so proud of him for making the decision to be baptized. He has grown up so much in the last few months. Kelly and I were shocked to think that Jacob will be able to baptize our baby when she turns eight!
Jacob planned the entire program and made sure to include every family member. The highlight was when Ryan, Jackson, and Emerson sang "I Am Like a Star" and Kelly and Jacob played the song on their guitars. They did such a great job!

Jacob, Congratulations on your baptism! We were thinking of you on Saturday and are glad everything turned out so nice. You sure look sharp in that suit. I didn't know Jacob & Kelly both play the guitar! That is so cool!

YEAH JACOB! You're awesome. I can't believe how handsome you are in your suit - it makes me want to cry because you look all grown up! I'm glad your baptism day was so great and that you had so many people who love you spend the day with you. I wish we could have been there...we miss you and love you! And you, too, RYRY!
