Such a cutie patootie!

Ella's Baptism

We finally had Ella baptised last Sunday. This was Ella's first time in church and it was actually the first time I had been in quite a while. As for out-of-towners, Erik's parents came up from South Carolina and my cousin Renee came from Nevada. We were so happy to have been able to share this special occasion with our family. My aunt and uncle offered to let Ella wear Renee's dress when she was baptised. It was such a nice gesture and it was special because it was handmade and was worn by my cousin over 23 years ago. Ella looked so cute all dressed up and she did really well. After the baptism we had lunch at our house. It made for a long day but it was worth it!
