Peyton's Special Day









On Sunday we blessed Peyton! The Jones' came in from the desert and Grandma and Grandpa plus Granny also came up for the blessing. We haven't seen the Jones' since Halloween and were going into withdrawals... we kept planning get togethers but with my bed rest, and then Peyton coming early, every good intention of getting together didn't happen. The kids screamed when they got to the house, and I barely saw Taylor the entire two days they were here because she was having so much fun with Emma and Claire. "Crameron" (Brent's name for Cameron) was Brent's best buddy and they had fun playing the Wii together.

Grandma and Grandpa and Granny were our only official family able to be at the blessing. Our parents were sad that they weren't there, but both our moms were so sweet to already come and help me earlier and Brad will probably come in the next few months. We wish we lived closer to our parents...

Eric gave such a beautiful blessing. I am so grateful for such a worthy husband... he is just the best. We were able to all come back to the house and have lunch together. We had Chicken Cordon Blue, Green Bean Casserole, Chicken with Mushroom rice, fruit salad, and rolls. We continued our eating fest with brownies and strawberry shortcake for dessert. ok.. now I really need to go on a diet...nursing just isn't doing it for me this time around.
