Trenton was baptized on February 6, 2010 by his father, my wonderful husband Brian. It was truly a wonderful occasion and many people were there who truly care for him and his family. Brian's brother and sisters family came and all their kids. It was a great time and so fun for all the cousins to be together. They all enjoyed some fun "snow time" and we enjoyed all hanging out together. The baptism was on Saturday at 10 am. Trenton was so excited and when we got to the church Brian and Trenton went to get ready right away. I went to set up our room where we would all be meeting afterwards. It was a very intimate setting as Trenton was the only child from our ward getting baptized that day. He was dressed all in white and entered the waters of Baptism. When Brian said the words... and in the name of Jesus Christ, I felt such a warm and peaceful feeling. I was assured that my son was making a righteous decision in his life. Then while they were changing we all went in our room and I had everyone write down on a little card (that would later be put into a book) their messages to Trenton on this special day. Then Trenton came in looking so spiffy in his suit coat and tie and we all watched the video his sister Natalie had made for him compiling many pictures of him with beautiful music. It truly brought tears to my eyes as I realized even more how fast they grow up. Then Grandma Debbie gave an awesome talk on the Holy Ghost. I now it was special for him because he too had tears in his eyes. The Spirit was truly amazing. Thank You to all who made the journey and were able to come. We are so thankful. It is a day I'm sure he will always remember.

We are so glad we could be there and be a part of his special day. I'll never forget what he said in the car on the way home after the baptism...as innocent as could be...."When I came out the water I had such a warm feeling inside." :)
I hear it was a wonderful day and am so sorry the Simas' were not able to make it. I am excited that Trenton has taken this important step in his life. It will be a day he will remember the rest of his life. We love you guys and are getting so excited to go Israel!!!
