Annie's Baptism


Annie turned 8 on October 4th, and normally would have been baptized that Saturday, but it was General Conference, so they had already done the October stake baptisms.  She was scheduled to be baptized in November instead... until a few weeks before when Tim realized that Rebekah, Price and Josh were all going to be gone on their band trip to Disneyland!  We definitely didn't want to do the baptism without them, so Annie agreed to wait all the way until December 1st!  She wasn't too sad about it after she realized that her Dad had been baptized in December, too!


This is the same baptism dress that Rebekah and Emma wore- Mom made it for me, and all of my sisters and most of the girl cousins were also baptized in it.  I love that we can have that little piece of history to continue our string of strong women!


Annie with her awesome Primary teacher, Sister Gray!


Annie and Dad! I am so grateful for Tim- having a husband who is worthy to perform priesthood ordinances makes life wonderful!


With Grandma Walker, and Grandma and Grandpa Steele.  We were sad that Grandpa Walker couldn't make it, but he was sick, and really needed to stay home in bed!


Annie and Grandma Shipley.  We are so blessed to live near Grandma- it is wonderful to me that she is an important part of my children's lives!


Four generations of women!


Annie in her new dress- she is beautiful!


Love this sweet girl! 
 We are so happy that she is in our family!
