SHYANNES BAPTISM
WE RECIEVED THE BEST CHRISTMAS PRESENT EVER THIS YEAR, OUR 11 YEAR OLD GRANDDAUGHTER SHYANNE WAS BAPTISED ! SHYANNE IS GENTRYS SECOND DAUGHTER. BEFORE CHRISTMAS SHE SURPRISED US WITH HER NEWS, AND WAS BAPTIZED THE SATURDAY AFTER CHRISTMAS. WE ARE TRULY GRATEFUL FOR THE MISSIONARIES WHO SPENT THE TIME TO TEACH HER THE LESSONS. SHE HAS BEEN ATTENDING HER WARD AND HAS MADE SOME NEW FRIENDS. SHYANNES GRANDPA SCOTT HAD THE HONOR OF PERFORMING THE BAPTISM. HER GRANDPA PAUL, GRANDPA SCOTT, HER BISHOP, THE MISSIONARIES, OUR GOOD FRIEND MARK WERE JOINED IN THE CIRCLE TO CONFIRM HER A MEMBER. THERE WERE MANY FRIENDS AND FAMILY THAT ATTENDED, IT WAS SO WONDERFUL TO HAVE THEIR SUPPORT, LOVE AND FRIENDSHIP. MY FRIEND DANA WOOLEY, AND ROBYN (DUSTINS EX-WIFE) BOTH GAVE A TALK. SHYANNES COUSIN JOSYLYNN (DUSTINS OLDEST GIRL) AND OUR FRIEND MARK WOOLEY BOTH SAID THE PRAYERS. THEIR LOVE AND DEVOTION FOR SHYANNE AND FOR THEIR HEAVENLY FATHER CAME SHINING THRU. WE SO MUCH APPRECIATED THEIR COMMENTS AND WE ARE GRATEFUL THAT THEY TOOK THEIR TIME TO BE THERE FOR SHYANNE AT THIS BUSY TIME OF YEAR. IT WAS ALSO SO NICE TO HAVE MY OLD FRIEND SUE THERE. IT HAS BEEN WONDERFUL TO BE ABLE TO SHARE SPECIAL FAMILY EVENTS AGAIN WITH HER. THANKS SUE !! THERE WAS SUCH AN AMAZING SPIRIT THAT DAY AT THE CHURCH, A TERRIFIC DAY FILLED WITH PEOPLE THAT WE LOVE THE MOST TO SHARE IT WITH. AFTER THE BAPTISM SEVERAL OF US WENT TO A RESTAURANT IN KAYSVILLE TO CELEBRATE. SHYANNE YOU HAVE GROWN UP TO BE A BEAUTIFUL YOUNG LADY WITH A BEAUTIFUL SPIRIT ! WE LOVE YOU SO MUCH AND ARE SOOOO VERY PROUD OF YOUR CHOICE TO BE BAPTIZED A MEMBER OF THE CHURCH. WE HOPE THAT YOU STAY TRUE TO YOURSELF AND YOUR HEAVENLY FATHER, AND CONTINUE TO MAKE THE RIGHT CHOICES. I CAN PROMISE YOU THAT IF YOU DO YOU WILL HAVE GREAT BLESSINGS COME TO YOU THROUGHOUT YOUR LIFE. KEEP LEARNING ALL THAT YOU CAN ABOUT YOUR HEAVENLY FATHER, ATTEND YOUR MEETINGS, AND SAY YOUR DAILY PRAYERS. THESE THINGS WILL BRING YOU JOY AND HAPPINESS!

Congrats to Shyanne for her choices; may she be an example of positive change in her family/friends. She looked radiant and happy after coming out of the font. I was glad to be able to share in the Spirit of the day.
