Brynley's Blessing Day



Baby girl Brynley was blessed today and we were lucky enough to have all of our family and friends in attendence. The weather was supposted to be rainy and yucky, but we had a beautiful spring day. We came back to our house afterward for a delicious brunch of scrambled eggs and ham, cinammon rolls, fruit, sausage and orange juice. It was so nice to be able to visit with family and friends on Brynley's special day.



Our immediate family. Amma, Geoff, Jen, Brynley, Nana, Papa, Aunt Coley, Uncle Tom, Ava, Hayden, Kaylyn and Hayley.




Our extended + the immediate family outside the church building. Great Grandparents, Aunts, Uncles, Cousins and friends were all there. In the circle to bless her was Geoff, Carroll (Papa), Uncle Kelly, Great Grandpa Draper, Scott (friend and neighbor from our ward) and Deny Denfield (1st Counselor).



This is so us.....Geoff holding on to Hayden so he doesn't run off to play with the other kids, my hand on Kaylyn to hold her still and Brynley crying from too many photos :0)



Mindy and Jenn came to our house afterwards to visit and help us celebrate.



She got to wear her big Sisters blessing gown and I made her hair bow. She looked beautiful in it. She got a little fussy during the blessing but it was a beautiful blessing. I'm so thankful that not only can my daughter be welcomed into our church, but that I have a husband worthy to bless her. Thanks to everyone who came to help us celebrate. We love you all.

Oh and just a side note. Hayden stood up and bore his testimony for the first time today and everyone was there to hear it. It was great!
