A few weeks before his big day we needed to go take some pictures of Alec in his suit for his Baptism invites. The days around the day we needed to get it done was supposed to be stormy, including the day that we really wanted to go and do it. So as soon as we had a minute of opened clouds Alec and I jumped in the car and headed out on our photo date night! Boy do I love that smiley guy....
After he was a good sport smiling for me, we headed out to Peach City for some yummy ice cream (it is our little secret!).
It ended up being a great night to take pictures. We were so lucky to be able to go around the newly finished Brigham City temple to get some of the pictures that we wanted to do.
He might have needed a little break for a minute:)!
The day of his Baptism was such a wonderful day. We had so many family members and friends that were their to support him. I hope those people will always realize how much it meant to Alec to have them their to support him in such a big moment of his life!
So grateful for these wonderful young men in my boys' life. Friends are such an important part to someone in so many different ways, I feel very fortunate that my kids have such great friends and examples in their lives.
{I also want Alec to remember that Great Grandpa Rhodes was there for his Baptism as well, he just snuck out before we got his picture}
Our little man trying to catch up to his best bud, Awec!

After his Baptism we had a nice lunch afterwards at our house. Everything just turned out lovely!

What a special day that Big Al had. I love looking through the photos of him after he was Baptized and Confirmed and I just have to say how much I love his big smile. There is that certain glow about him, he shows that he got it. He understood what a special day he was having and the importance of the promises he just made. What a special guy that Alec is, how blessed we are to have him in our lives!!!
