Eli's Blessing

We blessed Eli on May 22,2011 It was such a nice day, and so good to have our families with us. The men who stood in the circle were Robin (who gave the blessing) Grandpa Glen,Grandpa Skip,Great Grandpa Bruce, Uncle Clair, Uncle Terry (who surprised us and came up for the blessing I was one happy girl) Uncle Justen, Uncle Randy and Bishop Dunn. After the blessing we went to Grandma Luana's and Papa Bears to have a little lunch. It was a perfect day. We are so blessed to have Eli in our family, he is so sweet and is growing and getting so big. We love you Eli.

When I saw this picture it was so strange to see all of us together I feel like we are such a "big" family. Really there are five of us!


 Most of the men that stood in the cirlcle. Terry Great-Grandpa Bruce, Papa Skip, Robin, Eli, Papa Glen, Justen, and Randy. 



Grandma Shauna and Papa Glen
Papa Skip and Juju came from Washington to be with us on this special day. We love having them come to visit. It is sad that they live so far away so we don't see them enough, so when they come it is a party.

 Eli's Uncle Chris has a hard time keeping his tounge  in his mouth for pictures so this one is for you Uncle Chris.
