Eliza got baptized on her 8th birthday. It was a special day for everyone involved. It was extra special because Grandma and Grandpa Cole came all the way from Texas to be here for it. It was a short trip but we still had fun. The first day was kind of crazy because we picked Grandpa Cole up from the airport, brought him home, and then Collin and I immediately headed to the hospital because I had a small surgery that had to be done. That meant that the girls got to be with Grandpa all day. They went to the park, did crafts, read books, walked to Walgreens and bought candy, and generally had a great time. That night Grandma Cole came. Unfortunately Grandma Cole had an attack of vertigo while she was here so she missed out on a lot of the fun. We went to watch Leona in her ballet class and then headed to Pike Place Market with Grandpa, where he bought rambutans, which were exotic and fun.
The next day was Eliza's birthday and baptism. Luckily Grandma was doing a little bit better and was able to make it to the baptism. Grandma and I gave the talks, Grandpa was a witness and helped confirm Eliza, dad of course baptized and confirmed her. It was a wonderful day for everybody. Eliza set a good example for her two little sisters.
