A sweet blessing.

Jared was able to bless Andolyn, and it was such a beautiful experience. It is always so sweet as the mom to be able to sit and watch my husband give our children a name and a blessing, and this time was no different. It was a wonderful day and it was very special to have grandma and grandpa here to share it with. After the meetings we didn't get any pictures because there was a huge thunderstorm that was shaking the building...but it cleared up later and we went to Valley Forge National Park and took some pictures there. I wanted to get some special pictures of the gown Andolyn was blessed in because it is the last time I expect to have it in my hands until my grandchildren are being blessed. My grandmother made it and my brother was christened in it, and my sister and I were blessed in it. Since then all of my parents grandchildren (except Camden) were also blessed in it, making 11 children over 2 generations who have used that same dress.
