Tehani's Special Day

I'm a little late in posting about this but I wanted to share a few of the pics from Tehani's baptism. Tehani turned eight all the way back in September so she was super excited that it was finally the day she was going to get baptized. It was also the first baptism that I was in charge of helping with (I'm in the Primary Presidency) but aside from the stress of that, it was a great day.

Uncle Afa got to do the actual baptism and other than some audibly loud comments from Tehani when she was getting out of font (something along the line of "Brrrrrrrrr") the baptism--and confirmation by her Dad--were very nice. The only minor concern on Tehani's part came when it was time to get dressed for the baptism. Our fashionista in training was a little unhappy with the available selection of jumpsuit wear. I tried to convince her that the XL jumper was not too big for her but she wasn't buying it :)

Tehani was happy, however, to be getting baptized at the same time as a friend of hers from Primary. It was also very nice that my Dad was able to come from Chicago for the event (even if we had to whisk him to the airport a few hours after :)
Thanks to everyone that made Tehani's day so special!
