Dakoda's Blessing Day

On Saturday D & I went up to spend the day with my family for Dakoda's blessing. She is seriously one of the most mellow babies I have ever seen & such a joy to be around. We were so happy to be able to participate & to see lots of family and friends. I was also reminded of how grateful I am that my sweet husband holds the priesthood & is worthy to use it--I love you, D!

Miss Koda Bug, we're so glad we have you in our lives! We love you!

Happy Family :)
Bri, Mike & Dakoda

In her blessing dress. They started taking pictures of her in her white dress on top of a white table cloth. Sillies. So I gave them a yellow blanket to put under her so she didn't blend in so much. This is the same blessing dress Hannah wore when she was blessed.

Such a happy girl! And she was so good during the blessing. My dad peaked at her & said she took her headband off & was swinging it around & nearly whipped it at someone in the circle. He said he had to close his eyes again really fast so he didn't start laughing. :)

After the blessing we went back to my parents house so D could help move the really cool playhouse my parents have over to Bri's house. What an ordeal! Luckily they had lots of help.

Getting it set up to move.

Having too much fun ;)
Liam & Hannah stayed out of the way by playing on Gramps's motorcycle, & Hannah sang songs to me using the curtain rods from the playhouse as her microphone :)

And once we got it over to Bri & Mike's, Bri was a ton of help! ;)

Thanks again for a nice visit, family! We love you!
