What a wonderful day June 7, 2008 was. Alyssa turned 8 on 5/27/08 and was ready to be baptized. Grandma and Papa Mattice, Aunt Steph, Aunt Chelle, and Paityn all came for her special day. Grandma and Chelle gave wonderful talks. Alyssa, Shelby, Paityn, and some Primary friends sang, "When I am Baptized." It was so great having Dennis be able to baptize her. Grandpa Mattice confirmed Alyssa with the Gift of the Holy Ghost. Bishop O'Brien let Dennis stand near the circle by them. The Spirit was so strong that day. After Alyssa got baptized I helped Alyssa change her clothes. She kept saying that she was so glad she got baptized. While we were doing her hair she told me she felt so mature now. I thought it was so sweet. She just glowed that day. We wished Tami and Melani's families could have been here too. Hopefully we'll see you before too much longer.
