Savannah's Blessing Day

A baby blessing is always a special occasion, but it's even more special when it's your own baby.  Darwin gave Savannah a beautiful blessing, and we've gotten many compliments from people in our ward on how beautiful they thought it was.  One sweet lady even sent us a nice little note in the mail!  Ya done good, Babe! ;)

A HUGE thank you to everyone who got up early and traveled to be with us.  And another HUGE thank you to Gamma Deming who made Savannah's beautiful heirloom dress that she can use for her girls when they get their special blessing too!  (We'll take more/better pictures of Savannah in her dress soon.)  The whole day was wonderful and we were so blessed to have many of our family members and friends join us for Savannah's special day.  Having our family and friends there who couldn't make it would be the the only thing that would have made the day better.

Our beautiful princess all bathed but not quite ready to get in her special dress yet

I will always regret that we didn't get better pictures from the day Aurora was blessed, but I was honestly a little overwhelmed and we were all exhausted after church.  Either way, we can't go back and take more.  So...we made sure to get nice pictures of Savannah's blessing day!

Our family after church - Aurora was being a bit of a stinker so this is the best picture we got

Aurora was done with pictures, so we booted her out but got a nice one of the three of us!

Isn't Savannah's dress so beautiful?

We had a BBQ luncheon at Dar's parents house, which was a fabulous idea and the weather and the company were great!  The kids certainly enjoyed themselves on the teeter-totter.

 Couldn't resist posting this one - Aurora hugging Mr. P--they're such good buds!  Good thing too!  They're going to get married someday so Tracee and I can be in-laws :)

After most of our guests left, Aurora got her hands on the camera.  She doesn't do too bad of a job sometimes!

I don't even remember her taking this picture.  Haha!

She loves flowers, or what she calls "fowlers" :)

And, that's a good one to end with.  Thanks again to all of you lovely friends and family members who came to support us, and for those of you who would have been there if you could have.  We wished we could have invited all our friends from our ward to join us for our yummy BBQ too, but we have so many wonderful friends at church we would have ended up inviting half the ward!

We're so glad we have you, Miss Savannah Belle.  Thank you for making our family more complete and for making our lives more beautiful with your precious spirit!  We love you!
