Tristan's Baptism Weekend

NEWS FLASH!!!!!! Tristan Brent Conlin turned 8 on Sept 1st and was baptised and confirmed by his Dad (Roger Conlin) on September 5th. YEAH!!!!!

We (Roger, Zack, Grandma and Grandpa Conlin and I) were able to travel to Colorado for Tristan's special day. We stayed at the Super 8 motel friday and Saturday. Saturday we were able to spend the day with Tristan and Carson.

After the baptism we went to Deseret Book and got Tristan a set of scriptures. While they were putting his name on them the boys and I went for a short walk. Of course being boys, they found a rock to play on. :-) It was a tight squeeze, but they all managed to get on top and stay on top, long enough to get a picture taken.

After the bookstore we stopped and got lunch at KFC and then headed up the mountains to Estes Park.

The boys had a blast throwing rocks into the river.

After that we headed across the bridge and had fun walking through all the stores and through the rain. Don't worry, we did take time to go to the "Old Fashioned" candy store and the homemade fudge store. Carson and Tristan were pretty worried we were going to go to Estes Park and not get to the candy store.

It was a really fun time and good to see the boy's even if only for the day.
