Sydney's Baptism was on Halloween!

Sydney was baptized on Halloween. She'll always be able to remember that date. Lots of relatives came to help her celebrate--all four grandparents, Uncle Ken and Rachel, Robin and Ann Marie, and all the Dodges. Plus her Uncle Mark's family and a cousin, Tyler and his family.

Aunt Sheryl gave a wonderful talk about the Holy Ghost. Sydney's Mom sang a beautiful arrangement of "I Feel My Savior's Love."

Sydney was baptized by her dad. The baptism was witnessed by her two grandpas. She was also confirmed by her dad. It was touching to hear a worthy father confirm his beautiful daughter. He blessed her that she would feel the Savior's love and that she would be close to her mother to benefit from her faith and wisdom.

This is from Sydney:

Thank you for writing about my baptism on your blog, and for writing the words to my confirmation blessing. Thanks for the locket, for playing piano and for making chily for afterward. It was yummy.
And most of all for being here.
