Ainsley's Blessing

Today, (well i guess technically now it's yesterday) Ainsley Hazel was blessed at our church. Her father held her, surrounded by the men in our family that could be there, and gave her the very first blessing of her life. I am not a cry-er, but as soon as Tom began talking, tears just filled my eyes. I am so blessed. I have such a beautiful daughter, and such a great husband, and to see them standing at the front of the church just filled my heart with joy. My little family. Tom did a great job. He didn't seem nervous at all until right before they called him up there. :) It was great to have friends and family there. A lot of people couldn't make it, with the crazy summer plans going on, (which is definitely understandable), but it was really nice of those who did make it. We feel very loved :)

Ainsley wore a beautiful dress made for her by Grandma Cinda. Uncle Tad said she looked like an angel, and I definitely agree.

She looks so cute! I know what you mean, having a baby definitely turns you into a cryer at weird moments. Have fun in NYC!
