Bolton's Baptism

Bolton was baptized on December 4, by his father, Scott.  Our fourth child to get baptized!  Where does the time go.  Bo was just a baby when we moved to St. George.
 Here they are dressed and ready to go.
 Here is Bolton afterwards with his best friend, Brock Taylor.
 It was a lovely day and we really appreciate the grandparents coming down and supporting us in this.  It was a fun weekend to be all together.
 Bo's grandparents have traditions concerning baptism presents.  In my family, the Harts, it is a tradition to give each child a "comforter" blanket in their favorite colors when they get baptized, to remind them of the comfort of the Holy Ghost.  The boys have all been so excited to get theirs.  Bo's favorite color is gold, and the blanket turned out great.  Thanks Grandma and Granpa Hart!
 Grandpa Wood served his mission in  England.  He has been back to visit many times and loves Benbow Farm, which is where Wilford Woodruff baptized a whole congregation of people.  It is a special place, and when Grandpa and Grandma Wood saw David Winter figurines of Benbow Farm, they decided it would be a great tradition to give all of the grandsons on their baptism day, to remind them of missionary work and get them excited for their own mission.  Thanks Grandpa!
