A Name and a Blessing

Today I was reminded of the miracle that it is to have Jake as part of our family.

Today Jacob was given a name and a blessing by his amazing father.

I felt so close to heaven as I watched Ryan give Jacob a name and blessing.

I am so grateful that Ryan is worthy of his priesthood and was able to do that for Jacob.

Jacob's blessing was so amazing.

I have been given a very special boy to raise.

I can't wait to see what his future holds!

We were blessed to have so many of our family and friends in attendance.

Ryan's parents and my dad's parents flew in from Utah.

My parents and siblings drove up from Indiana.

We also had 5 of Ryan's friends from school, his professor and the family I used to nanny for attend.

After the blessing we had everyone over to our tiny apartment for lunch.

It was great to have the chance to spend time with everyone.

Thank you to everyone who supported us in this important event.
