Ava's Blessing

On September 1, 2013 we blessed sweet Ava Jean MacNair. 

She looked like a little porcelain doll in her beautiful blessing dress. The blessing dress was my mothers blessing dress and it fit Ava perfectly. The shoes my great grandma palmer had knit, and the blanket was knit by my grandma Diamond (which Ian, and Aaron were also blessed with). Tim did a wonderful job blessing Ava, apparently she enjoyed being bounced very quickly during the blessing :) She has been such a joy in our lives and has completed our family. Before Ian was born we always knew our baby girl would be named Ava and we could have never imagined just how wonderful and beautiful she would be!

Tim's parents able to be their for the blessing as well.

The boys wanted nothing to do with taking pictures, they were inside playing with their cousins.

It was a wonderful day! We ate, talked, ate a little more, talked a little more. We laughed at old scrapbooks and the fact that we used to get together print pictures and make scrapbooks. 

 

We are so blessed to have such a wonderful and supportive family! We have seen them a lot this summer and it has been the best summer!

No more pictures- please :)
