Blessing Day



We had many friends and family in town a few weeks ago to celebrate Devin's first small step as a part of the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter Day Saints. He was blessed by his Dad, along with both grandpas, a cousin who happened to be in town, and a few other dear friends. This blessing is a prayer signifying the addition of his name to the records of the church (even though he won't be officially baptized and confirmed a member until he is 8 years old), along with a sweet words of counsel and love as he begins his journey in this life.

The day was hectic but we did manage to get some fun photos of some of our loved ones here that day. Grandma Jean also did a photo shoot with just Devin in the amazing blessing outfit she made for his special day. I feel so blessed that Devin is surrounded by so much love.
