Lydia is Blessed

My niece Lydia was blessed on Sunday. Obviously the newest addition to our extended family, she is simply adorable. It was a great experience to participate in her blessing.

She was blessed in Logan, UT so drove up there on Sunday morning. Their church didn't start until 1:00 pm so we had time to wake up, get dressed, eat breakfast and then drive there and still be in time for church to start. It started to snow on the way and we had some moments of concern as we started sliding on the highway near Kaysville. But the snow was short-lived and we made it okay.

Just about everyone in the family was there so it was cozy accommodations. The lunch after Sacrament meeting was a pot-luck lunch and was very tasty. We spent several hours there to visit with everyone before we headed home. It makes for a long day sitting in the car for a couple of hours (each way) plus church. Our boys were excited to stretch their legs when we got home.

Baby blessings are so wonderful. I'm excited to be a part of a family that has had many baby blessings.
