Preparing for Adam's baptism was a lot of responsibility! We wanted Adam to not only enjoy the family and friends that came to attend Adam's Baptism but understand the significance of his decision as well. I set up a tour at the Visitors Center about a month ago. Sister White was truly amazing, she called and checked in three times to make sure that what they were planning was going to meet our needs.
Our tour began in in the Christus room by singing I Am A Child of God. We then listened to the recorded presentation. We then followed our two Sister Missionaries to another room.

| The Sisters asked for two volunteers and so Adam and Carter participated. The sisters read the scriptures talking about putting on the whole armor of God. As they read about each item Carter was able to help Adam apply each piece until he was fully dressed in his protective armor. When the presentation was complete Alex was given the opportunity to try the armor on which, as you can imagine gave him great pleasure. We finished our tour by watching short clips of children and adult experiencing real life situations or baring their testimonies. This was a truly great way to prepare for Adam's special day of making covenants with his Heavenly Father. |
I have a frame for each of our children that holds four pictures. One for their child blessing, baptism, mission/endowments and wedding pictures. After Adam's tour we took pictures outside around the Temple. We were able to get a few good ones and created a picture for Adam's display table at his baptism.
Organ Stop Pizza is a great way to end any day in Arizona!! We enjoyed great company, food and entertainment. Not only did we have friends join us for dinner but we ran into a friend from Florida. What a great start to an important day in our son's life!!
