It snowed most of the weekend so we didn’t go out and do much but had fun playing games and hanging out.

Truman was lucky enough to be baptized with his best friend on Saturday.  How often does that happen?  It was Stake (group of congregations) baptism day and Nick and Tru were the only two from our Ward (Congregation) that were being baptized.  They had a nice program and to make it special for the boys they read little questionnaires that the families filled out for each kid.  Favorite color, favorite food, etc.  We got to write a brief family message to him and this is what we wrote:

Truman couldn’t wait to start his life here on earth so he was born in his mom’s car without any doctors or nurses.  Ever since he has been ready to face all life has to offer.  He is a generous, outgoing and fun loving eight year old.  He’s a loving brother and a down right wonderful son.

Truman is the perfect middle child.  He doesn’t let himself get passed over for attention or notice.  Truman just demands your attention in a very subtle way so you don’t even notice that he’s asking for it.  He’s a great student, a great friend, a great brother and a great son.  He really is a sweet, wonderful kid.

p.s.  I put more photos of our great day on facebook.

Max had his interview with the Bishop yesterday and it was so amazing to hear his answers to the Bishop’s questions.  It’s incredible what he knows and understands already.  We are so excited for this step he’s taking to follow the teachings of Jesus.

We would love it if you could come celebrate with us but totally understand if you can’t.
