I belong to the Church of Jesus Christ...

On July 7th our family celebrated an amazing day.  Our sweet Aiden boy was baptized and Candi and Casey's baby Alena was blessed. 
We are so proud of Aiden and his decision to be baptized. Aiden is such a good, sweet, wonderful boy full of love and understanding.  He feels things that others don't.  His compassion and charity are unbelievable. He will give to Erik even if it means he goes without because he knows it will make his brother happy.  It really does amaze me and I am so proud of him and the boy that he is.
We had the baptism and blessing at the Stake Center in Santaquin then we went over to the park in Genola for a BBQ so the kids could play on the playground and the big kids could play soccer.
I am so grateful for our family and the support and love that we have. I don't think there are to many families that support and truly enjoy being together as much as our family and it makes me so thankful to be a part of such an amazing family.
Aiden received new scriptures at his baptism along with scripture stories from Papa and Grandma. Grandpa Despain also gave him a book of his Jungle Stories. I am so excited,  he finally wrote his stories from when he worked in the jungles of Brazil and put them in a book. Aiden got the first copy:)
Aiden was baptized by his dad Ryan Dennis Despain and those who joined in the circle to confirm him consisted of: Ryan Dennis Despain (Father), Gordon Harry Grimstead (Grandfather), Richard Clyn Desepain (Grandfather), Benjamin Erik Grimstead (Uncle), Joshua Scott Grimstead (Uncle), Jordan Earl Grimstead (Uncle), Kyle Eugene Meier (Uncle), Chandler Beckstrom (Uncle), Christopher Hoeger (Uncle), Casey Paul Despain (Uncle), Max Berry (Family Friend Forever).
