Preston's mom aka Nana gave Nathan a white towel that was embroidered with his name and baptism date on it that he used to dry off after he was baptized.
All the cousins that came to the baptism. We are missing 3 from my side. These kids also sang the musical number for the baptism and they did a great job.
Nathan and his cousin Rachel. She will be baptized in June.
After the baptism a lot of the family came over to our house for a luncheon. Here are most of the kids eating pizza in our backyard. (fyi: if you let kids have a picnic I recommend bringing the extra food in right after and not let it sit on the blanket for a couple hours. There were ants EVERYWHERE!!!!!)
Nathan wanted a pinata for his party too, so we got one that was Optimus Prime.
Natalie would touch the bat to the pinata and just giggle and pose for a picture. It was funny.
We then ate donuts (Nathan doesn't like cake) and opened presents
The present from us was the traditional set of scriptures for your 8th birthday.
After presents we went and played at the park. This is Taylor running with a kite. Now that is what I call happy.
Nathan and Daniel flew their dragon gliders.
They rode bikes and played on the playground and just had fun enjoying the spring day.
That night Preston's side of the family went out to dinner at Famous Dave's. The restaurant sang to Nathan and he got this really cool thing of ice cream with the sparkler on it.
Just a random picture but I wanted to document that Nathan went to his first day of scouts on Wednesday the 24th. He got the scout shirt from my mom. Now I just need to sew on the missing badges and troop #
