Ella's Baby Dedication

We had a very wonderful and sweet Valentine's Day as Ella had her Baby Dedication at church. She looked beautiful in her long white Christening gown and did very good while we were up in front of the whole church. Afterwards, we had a house full of family over for lunch to celebrate Ella's day! It was a very special day spent with lots of special people!

with Sue-Sue

and finally with Mom and Dad!

Here are a few shots that I took before I got her ready...

Both pieces of jewelry were given to Ella by my Mom and Dad. The bracelet was given on the day she was born and the cross necklace was given in honor of this day. She wore both that day! They were beautiful and oh so cute to see a little bling on this sweet baby!

Gorgeous Gown!

Ella with her gown, frilly panties and frilly socks (must have's for the day)!

Here are a few shots beforehand with everything on...(never realized how hard a long gown and jewelry would be to get on a 7 month old! Whew...there were tears from everyone!)

Lee and I were so thankful to have both of our parents there along with both of my grandmothers, Becca, Eric, Colby and even sweet Savannah (first trip to church), as well as Ella's little cousin Tommie and Kevin, Amanda, Jacob and Jackson (who exclaimed, "There's baby Ella"...when we got up in front of the church).

Thanks to everyone for coming and sharing our special day!
