Maddy was Baptized and Confirmed a member of the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter Day Saints on September 10, 2011. It was a special day shared with all the people Maddy loves so much. Maddy had been looking forward to this day for so long, she talked about it almost everyday and she could not wait for it to come. Well it came and left in a hurry!! She looked beautiful in her white clothes, so clean and pure. Maddy had so many family members and good friends there to see her get baptized and it meant so much to her. It was a beautiful day for a special little girl. Maddy and Kynzee got to sing with a group of girls during the program and they loved that, so fun for them both. After her baptism we had a luncheon at our house, we had a perfect day with perfect weather. We are so proud of Maddy and her choice to be baptized. We love you Maddy!!

I Love this Poem….
3 White Dresses
My mom bought me a white dress,
Not red or pink or blue.
She said it was a special dress
Like very other few.
There has been just one before,
A dress now put away,
That I wore some time ago
Upon my blessing day.
As a little baby clothed
In my first white dress,
My dad held me in his arms,
There to name and bless.
So pure and clean was I just then,
With time to grow and learn
About the Father's plan for me.
My glory I must earn.
Now I've reached the age to judge
The wrong road from the right,
And I am here to be baptized
In this dress of white.
So once again I'm free from sin.
The path is clear to me.
I'll grasp the rod and hold on tight,
I vow with certainty.
Just as mud would stain my dress,
Sin would stain my soul.
The key is to repent or bleach,
For whiteness is my goal.
And if I try my very best,
Then richly blessed I'll be,
Wearing inside God's holy house
White dress number three.
So today I make this pledge:
I'll strive to choose the right,
Through this sacred baptism ordinance
In my second dress of white.
I can’t believe Maddy is already on her second white dress!!!

Wonderful, Perfect Day!!!

Oh you are not kidding. That truly must of been a wonderful perfect day. I got all teary eyed when I saw the pictures of Josh and Maddy together. Especially after listening to Sister Dalton's talk this past conference regarding Father's and their influence on their daughters. How sweet and precious. There is nothing like that kind of a relationship.
Congrats to Maddy on her baptism day!
P.S. Her little white dress is gorgeous!
