Joey's Blessing Day

One of the reasons we came out to Ontario was so that we could bless Joey with J's family. I would have loved it if my family could've been here also, but I know that they were here in spirit and that they would've come if they could've.

We were going to bless Joey next weekend, but then Sandy remembered they have District Conference so we blessed Joey yesterday.

We had some great men in the circle and there would've been a few more if things had worked out, but we were very happy that those that could were able to be there in the circle.

Here are some pictures of the day.


Here is Joey in his awesome outfit that my mom and I put together. She made the adult suspenders into Joey size suspenders since we couldn't find any infant ones anywhere that we looked.

My two handsome boys all ready for church.

All the men that were in the circle for Joey's blessing. Ron Scott (J's uncle), James Scott, John Scott (J's cousin), Don MacRae (family friend), Rich Bennett (family friend) and Terry Scott (J's dad)

Rich and Joey (Rich and his son Zac helped J move out to Calgary five years ago)

After church, we had lunch and then Beth's friend Sally took some pictures for us and here are some of them. (as you can see, I also changed the picture for my blog)

It was a great day and the blessing was wonderful as well. We will get some more pictures of the family and Beth since she missed out because she had to work.

Today is mine and J's two year anniversary and we get to have Thanksgiving dinner! Because we got married Thanksgiving weekend, we've missed out on it for a few years and we were in Mexico last year for our anniversary.

Tomorrow we are going on a family trip to Ottawa and then Montreal. I'm excited to see other parts of the province and also to go to another province to put my total up to 4! Joey will also get to go to his 4th province and he is only two months old.

We will be taking more pictures on our mini trip I'm sure so keep watching :) And let me know what you think of the pictures. I love comments :)
