A Fine Evening for Baby Blessing Pictures

Earlier this summer we were able to go home to California to bless our beautiful baby boy, which I wrote about here, but never got around to posting any pictures until now. 

Such a little man already! 

My wonderfully talented Mother in Law made Harrison's special blessing day outfit from my wedding dress. She created an adorable little mini pant and a vest set. We decided to forgo the tie, [although it would have been super cute!] not wanting a fussy and uncomfortable baby for the service.

It was a perfect morning for a baby blessing and I feel very grateful that Jordan is a worthy priesthood holder able to administer a blessing for our son. Jordan and I both come from large families so the first four or five rows of the church hall were filled before the 'regulars' started arriving! It meant so much to us that our families were able to share in the special day with us. 

Below are just a few memories captured from the reception held after. Thank you to my in laws for hosting such a loud and rowdy group!

I am in awe of this amazing little soul that God has blessed us with. 
Jordan and I are so grateful to be able to love on this little one every single day. He is so bright eyed and curious! We are grateful for such a large and loving family; a family that shares an abundance of love and is never short on noise! We are grateful for friends, who have shared our lives with us and grow with us each new step we take through this sojourn here on earth. 

We are grateful for our membership in The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter Day Saints; to know that families can be together forever and for the happiness our Heavenly Father so freely blesses us with.  

I fall more in love with these two everyday! 
XOXOXO.
