McKamree's Baptism

McKamree had the awesome opportunity to be baptized by Bryan on Saturday, October 10th. She was so excited. It was all she could think about for weeks. It was such a beautiful day. We were surrounded by family and friends and the spirit was so strong.
Bishop McIllrath was conducting the baptism and had such nice things to say about McKamree. He is such a neat, inspired man. We are very grateful he is our Bishop. He takes good care of our family! McKamree was baptized and confirmed by her dad. Her Grandpa Bird and Grandpa Burton were her witnesses.
There were so many special people there I want to list them so years from now McKamree can look back and remember them.
Great Grandpa Bird, Grandpa and Grandma Bird, Chandler, Sheila, Aleece and Conner Creason, Rob, Shanna, McKane, Miles, Bailee and Emilee Bird, Grandpa and Grandma Burton, Andy, Jennifer, Miriam, and Mallory, Burton, Bishop McIllrath, Tamera, Becca and Megan Yost, Jason and Carolee Rogers, Valerie Waters, Janet Wills, Anne and Katelyn Jaynes and of course, Dad, Mom, Kenzee, McKaylee and Rickee. McKamree is such has such a sweet spirit. She tries very hard to choose the right. She has a testimony of Jesus Christ and she knows that He loves her. McKamree is very excited to have the Holy Ghost as a constant companion and loves to feel the spirit!
Congratulations Sweetie! I am very proud of you! This is the first step in returning to live with Heavenly Father again! Don't ever forget the feelings you felt on this special day! Always try to choose the right and listen to the Holy Ghost. He will never lead you astray! Continue to say your prayers and read your scriptures! Stay close to your family and always remember we are here to help and love you! I love you to the moon and back!
