Baptism

Well, Thanksgiving weekend was really a crazy one for our families.
We traveled to Stillwater for Thursday and Friday and then everyone came
over to Eau Claire for Logan's baptism on Saturday evening at Bethesda Lutheran Church.
Thanks to our families who endured the crazy weekend we created
and for all the help with the great baptism meal! Yum!


Here's the big crew at the chruch before the service.
Grandma and Grandpa Eiselt, Great Grandma and Great Grandpa Eiselt & Auntie Jenn
Grandma and Grandpa Holbrook, Kyle and Ali, & Amy and Andrew!
What a fun bunch!


We were so happy to have Logan baptized as an infant.
The symbolism of God accepting Logan as he is, before Logan can cognitively accept
God into his own heart, is such an amazing example of
God's love and grace for each of us.
This was a very special day for our little family!
Logan was great...he actually slept through the whole baptism -
he didn't even wake when Pastor Paul anointed him with water!


Logan with his sponsors. We miss you, Scott! We'll have to photoshop you in or something!



We had a nice meal at our house after the service, thanks to the Grandmas,
who brought great food to share. And the cake was so cute...Logan wanted to dig right in!


Handsome Logan with all the ladies!


The whole weekend with all the commotion, travel, and changes made
Logan a little fussy on Saturday. He did best when he just got to chill out by himself,
so here he is being Mr. Independent and perfectly happy about it!


We helped Logan open his gifts from family near and far. Logan says THANKS to everyone!


It was special to have Great Grandma Marianna Eiselt and Great Grandpa Wayne Eiselt
here for Logan's special day. Thanks for making the trip from Blue Earth, MN!
