Erik's Blessing




long boy
 Erik was blessed on Sunday, August 18.  George gave him a wonderful blessing.  Some of the things he blessed Erik with are strength and wisdom through trials, good friends and a long & happy life.  In our church, babies are not baptized but given a special blessing by a person holding the priesthood of God.  A child can choose to be baptized at eight years old if they desire.

Wonderful to have the support and love of lots of members of both sides of  our fam!


It was a lazy Sunday (my favorite kind) - games in the yard and chatting.  Easy but delicious dinner.  (pork burritos from the pig the night before).  The only bummer was that Gracie, Chris, and Taisha had to leave that night :(

So cute...brings back all the fabulous time of the blessing and family togetherness. We sure love the Tripps. You couldn't have picked better in-laws. We are all blessed because of them. Geo did a wonderful job blessing little Eric. Love the pics

Such a great time! We love the Coles! It was a blessed time to be together. Thanks for letting us all stay at your home. As Austin would say(and Grandma Cindy), "We're bonding." We are so grateful for little Erick and all of you!
