Easton's Baby Blessing

The second weekend in October we headed to Venice for Easton's baby blessing. It was a lot of fun getting ready for it because Shanelle and I were both making desserts. I made sugar cookies (chocolate and regular) and Shanelle made cupcakes. It was fun experimenting.

Branden and I worked on our sprinkling system there in Venice when we got there. It was freezing! I had a coat on and still froze. We got it done pretty quickly. We were able to spend time visiting with both families. I took Brax and Brinley to the pumpkin patch in Elsinore and got some BIG pumpkins, but I left my camera home so no photos available. They had fun even though it was sprinkling and cold. We had pizza with the Anderson clan that night and just visited. We also helped Tyler finish his Eagle Scout project. It was nice to spend time with both families while we were there.

The blessing day was very nice. I could tell Kincade was nervous, but he did a great job. Sacrament Meeting was very spiritual. The dinner turned out really well as well. We had fun and there was lots of good food. Cara's boy that was adopted by a family also was there with the rest of his family. It was so nice to see them.

After the dinner we went to Glenwood and our sister-in-law took photos of Brax so that we could get his baptismal invitations made. I'm so excited to see them. She does such a great job with photos. It was a fun weekend and we're glad we went.
