Baptismal Day

Our Holden was baptized and confirmed today. We would like to thank all of our family and friends who came and added to the joy of the day.

Here are some highlights of the day, in no particular order.

1. Joe only had to say the baptismal prayer two times, as compared with three for Nicholas.

2. After the baptism we served, by request of Holden, Tacos. Yummy Yummy.

3. Melisa made Holden a great CTR cake (that was not from a box) and we all sang Happy Birthday to him.

4. We had beautiful Hydrangeas for centerpieces provided by Gail.

5. In keeping with the unconventional nature of the Metzger family, Bishop Reed sported his flip flops. We love our Bishop!

6. When Noel takes on a project everyone gets put to work. Even little 4 year olds.

7. Whenever large groups of children get together, the instinct is to run wild in packs. They deserved to have some fun though after the great job they did on the special musical number.

8. On these special occasions we are a grateful for the ordinances of the gospel that bind us to our Heavenly Father, to each other, and to all those we love.
