Trevor's family drove 17 and 1/2 hours from California the day after Christmas to be with us for Amelia's blessing. We were so happy they arrived safely Saturday night. Sunday morning my family traveled down from Olympia to take part in Amelia's blessing. Amelia was dressed in the same blessing dress I was blessed in. My mother made the dress thirty years ago when I was a new baby. Trevor gave Amelia a beautiful blessing that honored both me and Amelia's wonderful Grandmothers. I was very touched by the words spoken.
After church we came back to our home for pictures and lunch. We shared a special afternoon visiting together.
Aunt Jena took a few pictures of Amelia in my blessing dress
A wink in her tights (I had so much fun putting her in tights:)
