All of Elsa's cousins, grandparents, aunts, and uncles journeyed to Fairbury this weekend to help us celebrate her baptism. We love any reason to bring our families together - we are reminded of just how fortunate we are to be surrounded by such loving, supportive, and simply put, good people.
Elsa's Aunt Amy is her Godmother (or Fairy Godmother according to her cousins). Amy is one of the most thoughtful and generous people we know. She was the first person we told that I was pregnant with Elsa. She is adventurous, driven, and confident - all qualities we hope our daughter will have. We know Amy will be a fabulous role model for Elsa and will share all her life lessons and hopefully recipes along the way!
Elsa wore a beautiful lace gown, once worn by her great-great grandfather circa 1890. Several family members on my mom's side of the family, including me, have worn this gown during our baptisms.

What a great way to start Spring!
