Emily's Blessing Weekend

We were so happy to have Grandma and Grandpa Blair and Uncle Todd join us for Emily's blessing day. They came for a long weekend and we had so much fun:


 Hanging at the house and talking and playing,



 
Playing Games after Abi went to sleep



And everyone except me and the girls went and saw the Wolverine movie. I wasn't sad to miss it.

One the morning of the blessing, we had some cute pajama girls!







Then some cute dressed up girls:










And here's the picture of the whole gang all dressed up


Monday the Boys and Abi went tubing down the Comal River while Karen and I purused touristy shops in Greune. It was PReTTy hot. We ended up going into a little burger/bar place and paying 3 dollars for a soda so we could sit there for about an hour and a half and wait in the air conditioning. Emily had a blow out and spent the rest of the outing looking cute, but a little ill-cared for in her diaper. The guys had fun and got pretty sunburned despite sunscreen. Abi came through without a sunburn. She is our little tan girl.





 The rest of their trip overlapped with Abigail's 2nd birthday which I will post in a separate post.

Emily's blessing was so beautiful and wonderful, it spoke of her peaceful nature, and her placement in our family and of the blessings that we hope that she attains in this life, a testimony, a family of her own and being able to make lasting and saving covenants with her Father in Heaven. We love her so much and were so happy to have Jeff's family come and meet her and love her and be there for her blessing.
