Little E's Blessing















Six months ago: There is four feet of snow, Jenn is waddling around, her sisters are singing "Christmas is coming and Jenny is getting fat", And Jenn's mother is suggesting the impossible. Our child's blessing date! July 6Th an impossibly long time away, not only would the snow be gone (a very hard thing to imagine in Idaho) But Jenn would have given birth (a fact the Jenn denied would ever really happen). Well here we are baby, summer, and all! My mom and Dad came early Sunday morning and brought out Little E's beautiful hand sewn dress. My mom put a piece of her wedding dress in the head band so it can be an heirloom for Little E when she has her babies. The blessing went well, despite that I was scared out of my mind that I would freeze up and nothing would come out. Later we had a dinner made by Jenn's mom which was very good!
My Parents stayed for a week and we had a great time but I think I'll save that for another time. I have to say though that Little E was quite taken with her grandpa. He would dance with her while rocking and singing to her. And Little E would coo and smile up at him. Here are some of the pictures we took.

That first picture with your dad is too precious. She looks so curious. It is funny and cute at the same time!

Holy cow! She looks like you in that second picture.

So, are you spelling it "Lillie" or "Lilly"?

Feel free to come look at my blog too since you have SO MUCH TIME, Mr. Teacher. It's perfectly okay to COMMENT too, so I know you've been there! (o:

Tell Jenny that she looks radiant as well.
