We had Calvin's baby blessing this past Sunday and it was a really sweet experience. A lot of things have been hard since my brother Justin passed away, but for some reason I was really sad about him not being there that day. But just as the blessing ended I had an overwhelming feeling of warmth from the spirit and I knew that he had been there looking on. It was such a special moment. I still just ache thinking about how he's really gone but I am so grateful for the tender mercies that the Lord has shown our family. Families truly are forever.
Anyways, Calvin looked handsome in his little outfit... beanie and all! We had a great time being together in honor of the little man.

And we discovered that trying to take a picture of 6 kids is near impossible.

The picture of your family is very cute. I am glad the blessing went well for you. I believe that picture is the first time I have ever seen what Pete's dad looks like.

Poor Paige is TOTALLY surrounded by boys! It doesn't seem to be getting any better for her either. :) Chel assures me that Paige can hold her own. I hope we end up in AZ... my girls would LOVE her!
