Michenna's Baptism Day

Michenna turned 8 this month. I'm not sure where all the time has gone between her birth and this very special birthday. She was baptized Tuesday evening at Sirena Beach. Grandma and Grandpa v.B. were able to fly out to Guam, and many wonderful people from the church were there. It was a beautiful experience.

Happy birthday and congratulations, Michenna!

Happy Birthday and Congratulations! Ocean baptisms are always so beautiful. How warm/cold was the water? In Hawaii, Sept.-June, the water is freezing and everyone enjoys hot cocoa afterwards.
