Anna Elise's Baptism

 Anna Elise turned 8 in October.  We waited to have her baptism in November so that her grandparents could come participate.  It was a very special day.  Her Dad was able to baptize her with her grandpa and my Uncle Jim as witnesses.  She was then confirmed a member of the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-Day Saints and given the gift of the Holy Ghost, with the bishop, her grandpa, my Uncle Jim and our old home teachers Brother McIntosh and Brother Bjorn standing in the circle.  Her grandma and Calvin gave talks and her two primary teachers said the prayers.  There were a lot of friends and ward members that assisted and came to show their support.  Anna's Grammy wasn't there but she passed down Anna Elise's baptism dress from her older cousin and gave her new shoes and a pretty hair bow.  Anna Elise felt special and I felt loved and supported!  Thank you everyone!  We are so proud of Anna Elise's decision to be baptized and of the other good choices she makes.
