Addison's Baptism

Addie was baptized at St. John's Lutheran Church on Dec 13. Her godparents are cousins Holly and Nick Bartels. Highlights of the day...Addie wore Holly's baptismal gown (24 years old), she recieved a silver cross necklace from her godparents, great grandma Karen made a homemade stitched quilt for Addie, Grandpa Doug had to miss the whole service due to Ethan being your typical 2 year old at church, Grandma Linda received volunteer of the year and was recognized during the service and in the end...Addie left all snugglie as a moose (thanks to uncle steve and uncle ron of course!)
