We decided before we had Elise that would bless her (a blessing is similar to a christening where the father gives the child a blessing and her name is placed on the church records) in the States so family could attend. It was important for us to have her surrounded by people who loved her and it was beautiful. My mother made her dress (since our heirloom dress is for newborns) and her Teuscher grandparents flew in after going to our BIL graduation and at the last minute my sister piled her 3 month old in the car and pulled an all nighter to drive down from Chicago!!
The men who stood up with Jamie - my father, my brother, my brother in law and Jamie's father.
The entire family
The Teuscher Grandparents
The Mockler Grandparents and my Sister's family
Our family of four!!
Happy Elise
Sister kiss
She inherited my skill of shoving our entire fist in our mouth, so proud
I just adored her dress, thanks Grandma!
Happy Blessing Day, Elise!
