Grandma Lange came from Utah to be with us for Grace's Baptism and confirmation. She gave Grace this cozy blanket to remind her of her baptism date and to remind her of the comfort the Holy Ghost will give her if she asks.
Grandma and Grandpa VK came from Alabama and Rudy came from Chicago. They brought her new scriptures and a CTR ring. We love having family around. 
Steve baptized and confirmed Grace. We were so thankful to have Grandpa and many friends join in the confirmation circle. I wish I had a picture of Grace with all the priesthood holders who participated. She has so many good examples of good men in her life.Susan Spoke about the Holy Ghost and gave Grace a huge orange lolli-pop. She talked about the gift and the experiences Grace would miss out on if she never opens the lolli-pop. She compared that to the gift of the Holy Ghost. To receive the gift of the Holy Ghost we need to do our part and ask for his help.
We are thankful that Grace is baptized and thankful for all the friends and family who shared with us this special day.

How wonderful!! That is so exciting. Mikaily has told us she isn't ready yet and I hope that being able to show her pictures of all the other little girls her ageand hearing their stories will help calm her fears. I am sure it was an amazing day for your whole family.
P.S. You look so great!!
That's awesome! Time flies so fast. I can't believe she's 8 already! Before you know it, it'll be Tanner's turn.
I loved your post and the pictures. What a beautiful family you have!
Congratulations to Grace! It sounds like it was perfect!
