Blessing Day

Last Sunday we blessed Brecklynn. We did it outside of Sacrament meeting so that she could be blessed with her other two cousins at the same time and make it easier on all the family. It was quite the event.

My family came down Saturday and stayed in a hotel. It was a lot of fun enjoying their company and the kids loved having people there to spoil them.

Sunday we went to Sacrament meeting and then headed back to get a few things ready for lunch. Pat and Steve were great and hosted a lunch for everyone. We figure there were somewhere between 40-50 people there eating, but amazingly it went very smoothly.

Here's Brecklynn in her blessing outfit. Its the same one Cambree wore that my mom made out of my wedding dress.


The classic 4 generation shot.

GG trying to hold all three babies. It was quite the site.

Brecklynn and Darrek were both hungry. It was so cute because they kept finding Brecklynn's hand and sucking on it together.
The three stars of the day.



My Grandma and Grandpa Meikle came down just for the blessing- Thanks for making the trip.

Just a cute shot

It was a great day and thank you to all that attended, especially those that traveled for the blessing. Curtis did a great job with the blessing and it was just a beautiful day.
