A Name and a Blessing

Two days after Christmas we blessed Grace. I was really nervous that Grace would fuss during her blessing because she was almost four months old, but thankfully she kept her cool (the rest of church was a different story). Aaron did an amazing job on the blessing and I bawled my eyes out which later turned to laughter when you could hear Grace babbling in the background.

I'm glad we waited to bless her in Utah because almost all of Aaron's family was there and some of Aaron's best friends were able to be part of the blessing as well.

Here are the men who participated: Aaron's Dad, Neal, Aaron, Graham, and Mark. Grace isn't in her blessing dress due to the fact that about 35 seconds after her blessing was over she wanted no part in wearing it.
Aaron's Grandmother came down from Ogden for the blessing so we took a "4 generation" picture. Shirley (Aaron's Grandmother), Jon (Aaron's Dad), Aaron, and Grace.
Neal and Kelli with the babe.
I didn't think Gracie would shed her dress as quickly as she did, but thankfully Heather took some pictures of us with Grace in her blessing dress.Thanks to everyone who made that day so special for us.
