Today you were given a name and a blessing by your father. It was an extra special day because we were in Utah in your Grandma and Grandpa Hancock's ward. You had almost all of your uncles and both Grandpas in the circle with you. Your daddy blessed you with many wonderful things: to be an example, faithfulness, to make righteous decisions, health, and that you would help serve the Savior. During the blessing you weren't very happy, but you were probably uncomfortable. You were almost 2 months old and barely fit in the white outfit we had for you. After church we had a fabulous lunch at the Hancock's. We had turkey, potatoes, salad, rolls, and cookies. I think there were 48 people there for you. You have a big family that loves you very much.
Love,
Mom
My boys
Everyone at the blessing minus a few
We tried desperately to get a family picture after the blessing. One member of our family in particular was NOT cooperative (ahem, Josh). He was tired and hungry and not about to smile in any way. So after much force, this is the best picture we came up with.
