Baby Blessing

A couple of Sunday's ago we blessed Cadence.  In our church father's bless their babies with a name and a special blessing when they are infants.

In Cadence's blessing Jason blessed her that she would know that she was a child of God and a precious daughter in Zion, and that this knowledge would be a comfort and strength throughout her life.  He blessed her with a great capacity for kindness and that others would feel of her love for them. Cadence was blessed with the desire to learn of the gospel, and that the light of Christ will shine brightly in her life and act as a compass as she makes decisions. That she will serve her Father in Heaven in any capacity that she is asked.

It was a beautiful blessing and we were grateful for so many family members that were able to join us.  My mom, Rachel, Jared and their family, Dave, Char and their family, Jared, Amber and their family, Jason's mom, Mitchel, and Jill and her two boys.

After church we came back to our home for lunch.  We served beef barley soup, potato soup with toppings, buns (that mom brought), veggie platter (that Char brought), and lemon lime delight salad, with creme puffs and carrot cake for dessert.  Such a beautiful day for a beautiful girl.

I bought her a keepsake bracelet that she can hopefully pass down to use for her daughter's blessing someday.

Starting to get a bit annoyed.

Getting hungry.
