A Friend's Baptism

Carly had a friend get baptized this past Saturday. Jordan (on the left) was introduced to the church by his friend Michael. Both boys are juniors at ETHS and were in Carly's seminary class. Jordan attended seminary the whole second semester of school and took the lessons in the Lake Forest ward. Jordan actually lives in our ward boundaries, so the Elders in the Lake Forest ward handed Jordan off to our Elders about a month ago. He has had a few of his final missionary lessons at our house. It has been such a great experience. Jordan is an exceptional young man with a very strong spirit. It has been a blessing in our families life to share the gospel with Jordan and be a part of this special day.

The kids alway like to get goofy with the missionaries and show off their muscles. This all started with Matt when he was in high school. Now it is kind of a tradition. haha!
