This is just a little note to let all of you know when we are planning on doing Bryson's Baptism. Because our Stake is in Weiser, they currently have the McCall wards do their own, individual baptisms. The other ward has even less primary kids than our ward does, so it is not often that you find two kids with birthdays in the same month. This is true for Bryson. There isn't another child with a birthday in May, so he will have his own baptism. Also, since they added onto our building last summer, the baptismal font is not up and running yet. So, our options are the Cascade church, the Lake, or our just-thawed-out pond.
Well, since the Lake is still frozen and the pond is freezing, Bryson has chosen to be baptized at the Cascade church. He will be baptized on Saturday, May 9th at 4 PM. We hoped this time would help all families traveling with small children to be able to nap their children on the way up and not take up a whole Saturday, for those who will come straight up and go straight back. Immediately following the baptism, we will have dinner and dessert, and then everyone can go home.
We do have room at our house for any family who wants to come up on Friday and stay-and-play before, or for those who want to stay over Saturday night. Our church is at 9 AM, for any who are interested. We have an empty king, queen, full, and two twin beds for use, and we can always kick our kids out of their bunkbeds if needed. So, if any of you would like to stay the night, we do have room. Jason's family will be staying at his parent's house up here, so that if my family wants to come visit, you will have a free place to stay.
For those who can make it - GREAT, and for those who can't - WE TOTALLY UNDERSTAND. We have not been able to attend very many family functions in the past, and know how difficult it is to get away, and even have the funds to travel. We just wanted to extend an official invitation to all of you. If you think you will be coming, will you post a comment indicating such, as we are trying to get an idea how many people we are feeding dinner to after the baptism.
Hope all of you are healthy and doing well, and your families are happy and thriving! We love and miss you all!

Ok, so I have heard from Becky & Dad so far, and I know what Pam's plans are (no worries - we TOTALLY understand). But, Tami and Greg - what's up? If you can't come, no worries, but I am just trying to get an idea for food and if I am going to have any extra house guests next Saturday (May 9th). Let me know!
Hi Lisa,
Sorry we haven't gotten back to you. We were trying to decide if we were coming. I don't think we will be able to make it after all. Sorry.
