Today was a good day. Had a rough start. Darienne didn't exactly want to get up and get ready this morning but we got everyone ready and out the door and we got to church a few minutes late but we got there.
Matt had a skit in which he played the Pharoh in the story of "Joseph and his Coat of many Colors".
We came home, ate dinner and got dressed up again for Andrew and Darienne's baptisms. We got down there early ( yay! not late this time ) and actually found the stake house ( this was the third time we were supposed to go to it and hadn't found it ).
Andrew went first, Darienne second and Elder Epps Baptised them. So many people in the church came to support the kids. The Relief Society President played the piano for the hymns. The missionaries Elder Heath and Elder Manjerrez did a presentation on baptism and did the opening and closing prayers. The Bishop talked twice, some girls from another ward came and sang a beautiful song. And our closing hymn was "Nearer my God, to thee". It was ultimately an absolutely grand experience.
Darienne was also voted in as Secretary for her Young Womans group.
Elder Epps played the piano afterwards and we stayed until he was done playing. They all came home with us afterwards.
Now its quiet. Just Darienne and Moo are making noise, taking a bath. She is almost ready for camp in the morning!!!!
