Blessed

You were blessed on December 14, 2014 at 4:00 PM in our home. It was our stake conference that day but we blessed you that day anyway, in our home, because Gramsy and Bampa were visiting for the holidays from their mission in Germany. It was so beautiful. Our best baby blessing yet. The spirit in our home, with all those people who love you packed into one small living room, was palpable.

 

Grandma Great, Gramsy and Bampa, Uncle Spencer and his six kids, Uncle Jackson and Aunt Katie, and their twin boys, Mom, Dad, Mara, Judah, Baylor, Uncle Dave and Aunt Debbie and their 3 kids, Uncle Kevin and Aunt Ashley and their 3 kids, Uncle Dan and Aunt Jamie and their 4 kids, Uncle Todd and Aunt Alli and Lyla, Bishop Russon and his counselor Mark Clawson, and our next door neighbors Greg and Trell Dohm were all there to support you. The Dohms aren’t LDS, and we have invited them to two other baby blessings, but this is the first one they have actually come to. Probably because we had it in our home. The spirit really was strong, and both Greg and Trell teared up during the blessing. Afterward they thanked us profusely for including them and said how special they felt. They even took us to breakfast the next weekend because they suddenly felt so close to us! You are already a little missionary. 

 

 

It really was a special event. I love that Bampa was there since he is your namesake. You are a special and well-loved little guy.
