Marian's Baby Blessing

November 16, 2015

Get ready for picture overload! 

Lance blessed Marian at his mom's house in East Mill Creek and it was wonderful!

Thank you to all who came! It was a sweet special night. 

Look at that face!

We are obsessed with this girl!

Have you ever seen anyone as cute as Marian!?

Even cute while crying!

We love our family!

The big reason we had her blessing in Salt Lake on a Monday was that my dad was in town. 

My mom couldn't make it, but that didn't stop us from Skyping her in!

Matthias provided some music.

Jody LOVES her Uncle Nick!

I sure love this baby!

Joanne is wearing a Cary dress.  Most of my Sunday dresses from age 3 to 9 were Cary dresses. 

This dress was one that Abbie Hulme wore.  It will go back to Abbie when she has girls.

Most of those Cary dresses were made into quilts for the girls. This one escaped.

Grandma Shelley and Brees

What a wonderful night!

 Thank you to all the family who came - we feel so much love from all of you -

 and for our new addition!
