Tess' Baptism

Wow, I can hardly believe that our Tessy-Messy is old enough, but it's true. She was baptized today, and it was such a special occassion. Tess helped us with the program and she decided who she wanted to speak. Zachary gave the talk on "Baptism" and my dad, Papa, spoke on the Gift of the Holy Ghost. Grandpa Beazer gave the opening prayer and my mom, Nannie, gave the closing. We had an Open House for our "special girl" at our home afterwards. It was a really nice day...long, but definitely a day we won't forget! I should take this opportunity to thank everyone who helped out today: Grandma Beazer helped me make cookies all morning, Nannie brought her special mulling spices over and whipped us up some hot apple cider, Michael and Bekah drove down here to spend the day with us (Michael even flashed back to his days as Student Band Director and lead the music for us...thanks again Mikey for helping us in a pinch), Rebekah Schreiner brought some broccolli salad over, and Heidi and McCrae drove all over The Ranches to find the right LDS church just to be there for us. I could go on and on...but "Thank You" to everyone. Finally, thanks to Brian for being such a great husband/dad. You're the best Bri, "I love you!"

Congrats on Tess's baptism. Time flies doesn't it? Noah will be baptized at the beginning of January, it makes me feel old.! Looks like it was a fun day.
