We blessed baby Abby on July 3rd 2011. It was a perfect day. I am so grateful for a wonderful husband who is worthy to hold the Priesthood. He gave a beautiful blessing. I prayed all week that Abby would sleep through the blessing. So far she has been very anti sleeping during church. Which I have decided is a good thing, you shouldn't sleep in church :). But luckily she did sleep through the blessing and the rest of sacrament meeting which was a wonderful fast and testimony meeting.
We had a really special thing happen at Abby's blessing. My Great grandparents, Abby's great great grandparents were able to attend the blessing. My great grandfather blessed me, so it was really neat that he was able to bless my daughter. The rest of Abby's circle consisted of my dad, Kyle's dad, both of my grandfathers, My Uncle Jason and Uncle Brent. My Great Grandfather also stood up in sacrament meeting and bore his testimony that he knew Christ was our Savior. He also encouraged us to continue to stay strong in the gospel that he knew to be true. How many people can say they have heard their great grandfather stand and bear his testimony? It was really neat. Below is Abby's 5 generation picture.

This is my Uncle Brent showing us how excited he was about the delicious dinner we had. It was homemade Cafe Rio. We had salads, and burritos and tons of different salsas. It was very yummy!!
It was also my birthday, blessing Abby was the perfect birthday present. But my mom also took me shopping and got me this delicious birthday cake!
It was a wonderful day and we had so much fun! Thank you to everyone that was able to make it, and we missed all of those that were far away! Kyle blessed Abigail with some very neat things. We are so excited to see this little baby grow and see all of the wonderful things she will do!
