Blessing Day

On Sunday we attended the baby blessing of our new niece, Madelyn. Then later that day we all enjoyed a lovely meal at Mike's parents' house. We feel greatly blessed to have this opportunity to be near family members. Here are a few pics from the day.

Here she is - the beautiful Madelyn! I do love this picture. She looks so happy in her gorgeous blessing gown made by Mike's mom.


Of course we can't miss an opportunity to take a picture of Aaron in his cute overalls. Does his hair look red to anyone else?? Maybe it's just the lighting (or my imagination).


I was in good company at the dinner as two others were wearing heavy-duty surgical shoes. We had a good laugh about our stylish new shoes - NOT! :) We're posing on Mike's parents' new deck. It looks great, especially surrounded by so many trees. That's Virginia for ya. Trees galore!

Jenny- He is getting sooo big!!He looks like a little boy now and his hair does look red. I hope your toe heals soon. Nathan had one removed several years ago too. He said it's painful. You are a trooper!
