Ellie's Blessing Day

Ryan blessed Ellie at our church on Sunday October 25th. It was a beautiful occasion, and particularly special because we had Ryan's parents and his sister and brother-in-law here to share our joy with us. Ellie was adorable in her little white dress and behaved well during the blessing. Ryan gave a beautiful blessing to our little girl. Our ward has quite a lot of elderly persons, so a baby blessing is a fairly rare event (as opposed to when Lincoln was blessed in Provo - you practically have to make an appointment before the baby's born to be slotted in! jk).

Some pictures of our little princess:




The whole group (with weird lighting behind us):


Our family of FOUR!


This is more indicative of a typical Sunday for us :)

Congrats! She's a beautiful addition to a beautiful family! She looks so feminine and small in her pretty little dress.

I love little princesses...(sigh) :)

Hi Jamie! I'm not sure if you remember us from good ol' p-Town, but we started up a blog again! We are excited to keep in touch with you guys. Your daughter is beautiful. Congratulations! That's so crazy to think that you have two children now. I remember when both you and I were having our first babies!!
