The Babies blessings

On Sunday the 6th we finally blessed the babies in Church. We were not taking them out in public yet because they were premies and we wanted to wait till they had their first of the RSV vaccines. We also planned it on a time where Adam had a concert so family coming from out of town could hear him perform. It was an amazing performance! The concert ran an hour and a half and was a Christms special that had every ensemble or group from the music department. There wasn't an intermission so it was 90 minutes of fun with maybe 5 secconds inbetween one performace ending and the next begining. This is a picture of Adam with his Dad and stepmom:
So Sunday we had the blessings. Their outfits were made by my Mother-in-Law Donna and we expected Kiersten to be bigger so she was swimming in her tiny dress but the outfits were beautiful. We went to church for the first time with them and then left after Sacrament to have a family lunch for the those that had to leave back to the airport. When two came almost everybody had left by then or shortly after so it made for a crazy weekend with a quiet Sunday night.
This is everyone who came out for the blessings. Again, it was a big group!
And these are the guys who blessed our babies- minus our awesome bishop and Bro Doughman (who we have adopted as family in Chico) They were still at church.
After all the craziness of the lunch, my sister Savannah went to the dumpster to throw something away and found a 5 foot Christmas tree someone had thrown away. It looks like someone got too big of a tree and cut it in half and threw the other part away. The top is an abrupt stop but we put our angel on the top of the stump. Savannah went dumpster diving for me and got it out haha. There is a tree farm not too farm up the hill from us where you can chop your own tree down for $10 so I'm guessing that's what happened.
Anyways, we had a great weekend with My dad and Adam's Dad both flying out a few days early to be there.
