Zach has been looking forward to this day as long as he can remember. It has been on his mind for lots of years. He is finally 8 and was baptized on Saturday the 27th. He was so excited. Of all of the great things about being baptized, one of the greatest was that his favorite people were able to be there. Of course there was mom and dad, and brothers and sisters, but the fact that Grandpa drove four days to be here and the Porter's braved the snowy roads to be here on his day were the best. He definitely felt special when he saw his friends and family there. Thanks to all who were able to come. Thanks to Nana for playing such beautiful music while we waited and to all of the cousins for such a great job singing with no practice. Thanks to Lexi and Paige for the accompianment. It was fabulous. Zach really did love it.
After the baptism, he chose to have build your own pizzas back at home. Whew, 27 pizzas later, we broke out Wii fit and had the most hilarious time watching 77 year old Papa twirl a virtual hula hoop. So much laughter and so much fun. That night, he got a phone call from a friend who was out of town wishing him congratulations and that completed one of his most perfect days ever.
It was definitely a great day that Zach will never forget.
