She's FINALLY Blessed!!!!

We went to Boise this weekend for a second try at getting Gracie blessed....and this time it worked!!!  It was very nice to have family and friends to share this very special occasion with us! I was very sad that my parents were unable to be there, but Bryant's entire family was there.  Even his Grandma and Grandpa Howard came! We also had some very very good friends come.  Ryan, Carissa and Ashlyn Littleford  were there (Bry and Ryan have been best friends for a long time) and Kyler, Holly and Brynlee Erhard were also there (Kyler and Bry were missionary companions and also very good friends).  My wonderful sister Kristin also made it for the occasion.  She went to school all day Saturday at Paul Mitchell, then went to work until 9:00 P.M. and then drove from Rexburg to Boise getting in around 3:00 in the morning.  Talk about a good sister!  I loved having her there.  She also gave Maren and Grandma Howard (that's Bryant's mom's name now!) the cutest haircuts!  I will see if I can post a "before and after" picture of their do's.  

Anyway, Gracie was sooooo good for her blessing.  She didn't cry at all and she didn't even need her binki!  I think Bryant gave her a very sweet blessing.  We are so grateful she is part of our lives.  Here are a few pictures of her special day.
