Gabe & Ari’s Baptism

Gabe and Ari decided to be baptized members of the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter Day Saints on April 11, 2015.  We were joined in witnessing and celebrating this milestone event by several of our closest family friends and family members.  I will always remember… the feeling of excitement – the “buzz” – in the air that day.  Ari’s squeals of glee at watching her brother get baptized and anticipating the moment when her time would come.  The love and support we felt from the people who attended.  Gabe and Ari’s happiness.  The heartbreaking beauty of their Aunt Chantelle’s musical number. 

I felt the spirit that day within the walls of a church, and I must admit, that I am the type who usually feels the spirit in places where there are no walls of any kind.  It was kind of a perfect morning.
