Elsie's blessing

Alan was able to bless our beautiful baby this past Sunday. Since Elsie was only two weeks old when we left for the summer, we wanted to wait until we came home and she was a little older, and so we could be around family.
Here she is sitting in her bumbo in her dress that my mother made for her. My mom crafted the blessing dress out of my wedding dress, and it turned out beautifully.
Our happy family.

All the men that were in the circle with Alan (minus Elsie's Great Uncle Dennis). Left to right, Grandpa Ken, Great Grandpa Swenson, Dad, Elsie, Great Grandpa McBeth, Grandpa Boyd, and Uncle Kyle.
It was a beautiful day and we enjoyed a lovely picnic lunch outside afterwards.
