Kendri's Baptism

Kendri was lucky enough to have lots of family at her baptism which occurred on April 26, 2014.  In fact, all we had was family at the baptism with a couple of Kendri's friends.  Even Grandma Suzette and Pa made the trip out for it!  She was super excited! Especially since they surprised the kids.  We kept it a big secret and then Voila! They were here.  It was fun!

 We remembered to take lots of pictures since I think we only have 2 pictures of Lexi's baptism.  Oops. This is Kendri in her baptism dress. It's been worn by all the girls on the Reese side of the family who have been baptized and will be worn by the all the younger ones.

Kendri is already a little missionary and made sure to invite her good friends to her special event.

Gettting ready.......Aunt Jenni gave Kendri this CTR towel to dry off with after being baptized.  Kendri loves it!

Almost time!

Kendri had the biggest smile on her face when she came out of the water.  She was just beaming! I took her in the bathroom to help change out of her wet clothes and asked her how she felt.  (Although I already knew because I could see it in her face). She told me she felt really, really good!  The church is true, people.

After getting changed into her confirmation dress, it was time to go and get confirmed a member of The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter Day Saints.  Gammi and Grandma both gave talks for the baptism.  Grandma spoke on baptism and Gammi gave her signature "Holy Ghost" talk and presented Kendri with a blanket.  Afterwards, we came home and drank rootbeer floats.  It was a great day!
