Samantha Aisling

Samantha was baptized in the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter Day Saints on March 6th, 2010. It ws a busy weekend but very rewarding! Samantha decided that she wanted to be baptized and we did it where all of her family could be together..California! for me it was a little bittersweet. It was the first "event" my Dad was not apart of. I was a little worried about that, but of course I worry too much and didnt need to. Itwas so nice of everyone to be there and to come for her big day! Thanks to family and friends who were there for us! We felt so loved!! Samantha wore the same dress that I wore when I was baptized...and my sisters wore the dress too. Samantha was baptized by her Dad, David. What a special thing for her! After the baptism we had a wonderful dinner thanks to my Mom! It was a very special day and I am so glad that everyone coul be a part of it!!

It looks like it was a wonderful day! I am so glad that you got to share in all of this. And, I was worried too about your events without your dad's physical presence (Jess's homecoming and Sam's baptism)...but, I am sure you all knew he was there. I'm glad you got to enjoy your time and celebrate together!!
