Baptism of Elise Madilyn

On Sunday, June 9th at 9:00 a.m. our new cousin, Elise Madilyn was baptized at Bethany Lutheran Church in Frost, MN.  Here's the star of the day:
We were so proud to celebrate her day with her and even more proud to contribute.  Mom & Dad are Elise's godparents, Dad did the readings and I even sang with Hannah and a couple of other kids at the front of the church during the service!  We sang "This Little Light of Mine" and "Jesus Loves Me"; good thing we've been practicing lots at home because we did great!  Here's Elise actually being baptized: 
Here's the proud family:  Uncle Kyle, cousin Hannah, Auntie Jenni and Elise!  Elise did amazing the entire time; perfectly calm and never made a peep!
Here's Mom & Dad, the godparents, with Uncle Kyle, Auntie Jenni & Elise: 
Our entire Prestegard family! 
Afterwards we headed to Grandma Judy's house for lunch and cake!  Here's the beautiful cake: 
Once lunch was over we had lots of cousin time to play and run around. 
We even stole Great Grandpa Omar's walker and made a new toy - note our hats are the arm chair covers!  Yes, we're pretty clever! 
It was a perfect, blessed day and we are so happy for Elise and the Larson family.  Can't wait until our next cousin encounter!  Congratulations Elise!
