Ivy's Baptism

 Ivy got baptized on April 12th, and we are so proud of her for making that decision to follow Jesus Christ. A few weeks before her baptism, I took these pictures of my beautiful girl in front of the Orem temple:

On her baptism day, we showed up bright and early:

Hyrum baptized her, and Ryan confirmed her and gave her the gift of the Holy Ghost:

Zane and Cora sang the song, "Gethsemane," while Hyrum played the piano:

She was so blessed to have so many friends and family come for baptism. Her two best friends came:

Aunt Cami and Uncle Dallen:

Her piano teacher:

Her Martin grandparents:

Her Schuetzler grandparents:

Papa and Bonnie Jubitz (great-grandparents):

Aunt Mindi and Uncle Bryan (and two of their boys not pictured):

Her school teacher even came!

We had other friends who came too:

After her baptism, we had a brunch at our house:

Soon after the brunch, Ivy had to get ready for her dance competition that was later that day, so we didn't get to stay and hang out that long, but it was still a great morning. I felt the Spirit during her baptism reminding me that it is because of Jesus Christ that we are made clean from all of our mistakes, and I am so grateful for that!
