Our beautiful daughter Elise was blessed on Sunday, March 13th 2011. We blessed her in my parents ward (my home ward growing up). Her Dad gave her a very special blessing. Some of the things I remember from it are:
-To know that her parents love her
-Good health and to be strong
-Have a strong testimony of the Gospel and a willingness to share it
-Have an outgoing personality and able to make friends easily
-With a quick mind and will be able to deal with school and other things
-To have good friends and good relationships with your family
Zack and I say each day how lucky we are to have Elise in our family. She is so special and fun and already has such a sweet and unique personality. Elise you have changed our lives for the best and we can't wait to watch you grow up even more! We love you!

Pretty much in love with this little girl!
My very talented mother made Elise's blessing dress and I could not have been happier with how it turned out. I told her the vision I had for it- I wanted it very simple but beautiful. She has such a great attention to detail and Elise looked so beautiful in it! Here are several photos to show you all the detail work she put into it! I am so happy that I will be able to have this for all my girls!
Here is the full dress.
Detail of the top of the dress- my Dad insisted that I pick these rose buttons. He loved them- so cute!
The lace and ribbon detail on the skirt of the dress. Thanks again Mom for making us such a timeless piece! She looked so beautiful in it!
