Tonight was seriously awesome! My cousin Steve got baptized today! YAY!! The baptism was held out at Eagle Mountain- and I had never been out that way before. I tell ya- the homes are nice- but it is SO far out there! I am definitely happy that I live where I do!
Tonight was so neat-because to me, it was the Gospel in action. This was a "re-baptism" for Steve. He has been through absolute hell- and had to reach way far down deep within himself to get to this point. It completely made me all teary and emotional to watch him- and see the joy in his face. His cute wife and kids were all crying and so happy. It was just wonderful!!! I am so grateful to have the Atonement in my life! Just to know that there is a way for me to be forgiven of all my stupid little mistakes that I make...and the huge giant ones too is amazing! The fact that my family can be together forever- brings me more happiness than I can even say. It just made me happy to go and think about all of those things- as I watched my cousin take the first steps to making his family an eternal one. So cool.

I wish I could have been there. Sadly I had planned 2 months ago a Lagoon day with Shaunas family. Shes hoping you got her comment because she really wants to get the kids together and see if she can't help you a little with the hair.
Wow, that is amazing. What a special treat to be able to see that baptism -- I'm sure it was really special and emotional to watch. Congratulations to Steve -- gotta hand it to him, it's been a tough road.
