New Year's Eve

So this is what happened on our New Year's Eve. 
 Bet you can't top that! 
Evan turned 18 on December 27th, and was baptized on the 31st.  It was sweet and simple.  Bridgete gave the opening prayer, Spencer played "He Sent His Son" and Filippo said the closing prayer.  I made cookies and Sophie was sort of well behaved.  Evan wanted it really low key...like how Evan is...but there was quite a turn out.  The room was packed and every chair was full.  It was nice to see all the love and support people have for Evan. 

Family picture.  What a good looking group if I do say so myself.

And here is Evan, Dave and Filippo in front of the Sacramento Temple. 

 It worked out perfectly that our ward was scheduled to do baptisms on the 12th.  It was a Thursday which is the only day Dave has off.  And Evan was just baptized so he could go.  So all three of them got to go inside together.  They were beaming.  Evan would never fess up to that, but it is true:) 

So I'd say that 2012 is defintely off to a good start.
