A blessing and a funeral

Grandpa Dean, Jeff and Luke

Our new little family


Grandpa Brent, andrew, Caden, and Luke. They are a handsome group.


Jeff and Brooke after Luke was born.


We had the oppurtunity to bless Luke on Sunday in our home. all of our family came to be with us. We have such amazing family and friends. We decided to do it at our home because of the paranoid mom. I don't want him to catch any illness. It was really nice. Jeff did a great job and he is a great father. He had just gotten home from Scout camp and was tired, but still did an amazing job. After the blessing, we had a yummy little breakfast and then just hung out. My sweet little sis Lesli and her husband were leaving from my house to move to Texas. We have a very close family and it makes it hard when one of them moves away. My mom was sad to see her go. It was closing a chapter in their lives and that was hard. I have to say, my Parents raised us to be who we have become. We have wonderful families that we are now raising, we are all close to our Heavenly father, and we all love each other. They should be very proud of the parents they are. We love them.








Before Les and Dan left we found out that their fish they had had for 2 years had died. It was so fitting. So we buried Rambo in the garden and said a few words. It was so funny. We will miss you Lesli and Dan and can't wait to see you in a few months.
