Bless This Baby & Happy Anniversary!

Ellison was baptized on Sunday, the 23rd of August. Mine and Alex's one year wedding anniversary. It was so fun to walk down the same isle again, stand at the front of the church and say "I do" again, only this time in response to the Pastor asking if we would help raise this child in the ways of the church.

She was by far the best dressed baby there, in her English style gown bought by Nanny and Grandad.


We celebrated both our anniversary and the baptism after the church service with a family get together at our place. It was a blast and made all the more special because Alex's brother Matt made the trip in from Washington to attend!

It was difficult to accomplish anything really that day, so I had to take pictures of Ellie in her gown the day after so get these:

And of course, the whole thing wouldn't be complete with out a thank you card made by me for the wonderful family and friends that attended!
