Jack gets Baptized

Finally!  Jack gets Baptized.  He turned 8 in June.  It was Jan 3, 2015 when he was baptized.  So, why was Jack not baptized in June? Well, he waited for Andrew, his brother, to turn 16, so he could Baptize him.  Andrew turned 16 in August.  The problem then, was that it was football season.  We have football EVERY Saturday til the end of October.  Jack would NOT hear of missing football.  Then his football team went to the playoffs in Nov.  Then, it was scheduled for December.  That meant that Brooke and McKenna would have to make a special trip home from College to come.  So we decided to wait again until January.  Which was still over the Christmas vacation.  That meant that Brooke and McKenna would both be here because it was their college break, and Mitchell would also be home from his Mission on Dec 18.  

January 3, came and yes Jack was Baptized.  Jack was Baptized by his brother, Andrew Lewis Clemons, and Confirmed by his cousin, Mitchell Lewis Peart.  Good thing we waited for Mitchell so he could confirm Jack.  
The other benefit to waiting, is that Mark's family was able to come too.  Mark said he was coming up to Bountiful because he had some time off.  So his family was there too!  It was a super fun day.  Really.  We had Pizza after at Grandma's house.  (since I am under the weather with my meniscus troubles)  

Happy we finally got him Baptized.  Happy Andrew and Mitchell could be there to help out.  Love Covenant keepers.
