Halle's blessing

We blessed Halle last Sunday. We were able to have lots of family from both sides come from far away. Some took a 4 hour flight with three little kids. Some took a 6 hr. drive and some got kids up at 6 a.m. and made a 1 hour drive so they could get here at 9:00. Some friends missed there own sacrament meetings and brought little kids to our's. Some picked up bags of Hershey kisses and Orange juice the afternoon before so I did not have to drag 3 kids to the store again. Some baked delicious Banana Bread and some made muffins all afternoon and even offered to host the after party at there house! I guess my point is that there are lots of people who love us! I fell so blessed to have such wonderful friends and family.
Here are all the kids that morning right before Church. I was alittle nervous before we got there because Brighton said he was going to stand it the circle with Daddy. I gave him a Dora coloring book when we got there and he forgot all about it.

I tried to get a decent shot of her dress, she kept falling over or crying so this is as good as I got.

This is the only picture I got of Sean all day long. He did such a great job with the blessing and I am so grateful he holds and honors his Priesthood.


I ordered these Pink doughnuts from Tasties


It was a great day and a great opportunity to spend the day with the people we love the most. Thank again for coming and for your love and support.
