Blessed Chelsea

We blessed Chelsea on August 5th in Mattawa at my parent's ward. We were over there that weekend for Carter's baptism so we just did the blessing there too. It was more convenient for our family. Kyle did a great job giving her the blessing and we were grateful to all our family that came and supported us. We had a ham dinner after Church at my parent's house.

We tried taking pictures before Church and that's always a "fun" time. I included some outtakes because those are funny to look at since it's really crazy trying to get all the kids to smile at the same time and not run away. 




My Mom made Chelsea's blessing dress and adorable booties. The picture of the booties is on my Mom's camera, but they are adorable. My Mom crocheted them and they are Mary Jane style. Chelsea's dress is made out of taffeta and she looked darling in it. I hurried and took these pictures before Church, but again they are awful and I need the other pictures from my Mom's fancy camera. :)



 My Mom has made all my kids their own blanket so she asked how I wanted Chelsea's done. I looked on Pinterest and found a blanket with this ruffled/pleated look and loved it. We went to Hobby Lobby and picked out the material and then voila she made it. Love it!

Outtakes are the best. I can just hear the commentary, not all of it pleasant, ha!

Great blanket, darling fabric.
