Sami's Baptism

Sami planned this entire day out well in advance. I think it was a year ago she started planning. She new this was going to be a great day and she is like me and wants to be prepared and have everything in order. She picked out her dress in April and has been in love with it since she saw it hanging on the rack in the store. She was excited to get her pictures done but wanted a special day off of school to do it. She got an hour out of school with me to do her pictures.

The day finally came and she had so much love and support from near and far. The room was full and she was blessed.
She knew that everyone usually gets a Christmas dress or tie so she requested the colors for the clothing. She chose Black and silver. Lucky for her I found a beautiful fabric for $1.50 a yard. I did not have time to make dresses but I had time to add sleeves, belts and make a scarf. Everyone looked great. We didn't even tell our extended family the colors but they all matched too.
It was so nice that Lance, Shauna, Porter and Conner were able to fit in a quick trip. We sure enjoyed having them there and Sami now gets to say. My cousins came to my baptism. Sami sure enjoyed the reminders that Uncle Lance kept giving her leading up to her baptism day. Do whatever you want it all gets washed away tomorrow. We love the Clines. Hopefully next time we will get to see Austin and Mason.




Sami with her Uncle Chris. They have such a unique bond that started when Sami was 18 months old. She loves every part of him being in her life. She asked him to be a wittness at her baptism. He accepted and if you look closely he even matches her color choices.



KC and Sami spend a lot of time together they have many things in common and she is tough enough to handle KC being rough. KC has a lot of advice for her too. He advised her to keep her scriptures close to her and read them often. He gave a talk at her baptism and got real emotional. He loves her so much and he let it show.

It was a great day. Grandma Jex delivered a Journal shortly after the baptism and Sami spent 30 minutes writing down every detail of her day.



Thank you Linda for taking the time to come and join us for this day and the holidays. It sure made it even more special. You did an amazing job helping Jami gather her thought s for her talk. Zoe was so excited to get to lead the music with you. I hope you feel our love and appreciation.

Thank you Heather for taking pictures and getting them to us quickly. We are glad that you and Kyle got to experience this with us.
