Our family!









Kate's blessing was yesterday. There were lots of highlights including:

we made it to our 8 am sacrament meeting on time!
both sets of grandparents were there
she wore a custom made everythingoes headband (thanks cocoa)
she was awake and quiet during the blessing and just looked around at everyone holding her
Joey, Tom, Dad, Casey, Rob, and Tanner were all part of the circle

We had a pair of gold ballet flats for her to wear as her first shoes and when we tried to put them on she flexed her toes as much as she could to prevent them from going on. After a few seconds of trying to make it work, we took them off and I took a picture of the shoes, without her cute feet in them! Learned my lesson ... blessing day is not a good first pair of shoes day :)

She was blessed to bring joy and peace to those around her, share her smile, make good friends, desire to follow the Lord and become an instrument in His hands.
