Grady's Blessing

We blessed Grady on March 30th. He is wearing the same blessing outfit that his dad, two uncles, and two older brothers wore at their blessings. We are so blessed to have such a great heirloom to pass on to our little grandsons.
Everything went perfect it was nice to have my side of he family to be able to participate in one of the blessings since we were in Utah with the previous two. My brother Chip and Dad Bill came which was extremely considerate given they are not members of our faith. They left right after the blessing so we don't have any pictures of them.



My Father Charlie and his wife Judy are in the first picture. Our attempted family picture, the kids wanted to go to class so we had to hold them there for the picture. My Brother Shane his wife Melissa and their five kids from oldest to youngest Micah, Majera, Donna, Jenna, and Joseph. Both my Father and my brother traveled over two hours to be there so a big thank you to them.

Grandma Shell and Grandpa Steve came all the way from Utah. The picture thing started to get hectic so I just got a quick shot of my mom with Grady and my brother Shane again with Grady. I just thought this picture was really cute. I learned that one of my brothers favorite things was putting infants to sleep. Who knew? Anyway after the blessing we all went to my Mom's for some simple food and family socialising. It was a good time, we love you all and wish everyone from Utah could have been here too.
