Clay's Baptism - Jake's Birthday July 31, 2010

We traveled from Rexburg Idaho to Kanab, stopping in Salt Lake for a few minutes. So, we could be in Kanab for Clay's baptism. His Dad baptised him.

That day in Kanab they had some pretty heavy thunderstorms, and some of their firends got flooded. MaryAnn took her kids out in the morning and early afternoon to help dig people out. At the baptism, the member of Bishopric introduced Clay, and thanked him for all his hard work today...he had helped to dig him out that day. And said how the Shakespear family was always there to help people out. And they are. Love them lots!

Clay and his Dad (Bryant) ready to go to the church.

All dressed in their whites, ready for the Baptism. Dad, Clay and Mom. I am so happy for Clay and his disicision to be Baptised. What a great kid!

Now we are celebrating Jake's 10th brithday. Can't believe that he is that old already! What a neat young man he is turning out to be. Always willing to help you out!

I think that Jake was trying to just blow out the candles himself. And Cora wanted to help out.
