Blessing Day

Always love blessing day.  It's such a great way to spotlight new little angels such as this one...


She was a champ through it all.  Passed around, unable to sleep... but still beautiful.  Hazel was blessed in this dress too.  My grandma made it nearly 30 years ago.  I was blessed in it, all my sisters were blessed in it, my two daughters were blessed in it, and so far all my nieces have been blessed in this dress.  I think it's beautiful.  Timeless and so meaningful.  My grandma couldn't make it to the blessing, but here is a picture of MorMor with Hazel at Hazel's blessing....


I always completely appreciate anyone who comes.  This is my dear Grandpa Christensen.  Love him.  Isn't he the cutest grandpa ever? 






Grandma and Grandpa Dyreng.  I seriously want to be like these two when I grow up.  They're amazing.


Absolutely love this one...  I don't think I've ever seen Richard smile so big for a picture.  Explanation...  Dillon was in a bind.  He had his leg bent back and foot looped through his underwear... courtesy of Uncle Cody (wish I had a picture of that!) It really was hilarious!  So good of Richard.  I really LOVE Casey's family.


Finally resting on Grandma Kimmy.  So sweet.

My parents with Vera.


We have the BEST family ever.  Every one has helped so much the last couple months and the blessing was no exception.  Couldn't have done it without all the help.  It was so great to have the family there at the blessing.  Love this sweet little girl too.   What a great day!!
