After Halloween was over we traveled down to Southern California so Elena could be baptized. She wanted to have all her cousins there and we figured it was easier for us to go there then all of them to come to us. She was so beautiful in her white dress and she loved the fact that her Grandma Snickerdoodle made it for her.
Ben and Elena had been practicing for weeks for the big day.
We are so proud of our sweet girl for being such a good example. She has such a strong spirit. We are also so grateful to Ben's family for traveling from Northern California to be apart of this special day. She was really excited to have her Grandpa and Grandma SweetPea be there with her. One of my favorite moments was having her be confirmed, with so many family members there to join in you could hear only the muffeled prayer from her proud Dad. I'm sure within the circle the Spirit was strong and she could feel the love of those men and especially of her Heavenly Father. Elena you have many people in your life that love you, most importantly your Mom and Dad.
