We blessed Alice on Easter Sunday. Since the sacrament program was already full, our bishop opted to bless her after sacrament meeting in one of the high council rooms. It was a little weird, but I guess all that really matters is that she was blessed and our families were able to be there.
All the men who helped with the blessing. From left to right - Grandpa Swenson, Kyle Swenson (Alan's brother), Ken Jenson (my dad), Alan (and Alice), Boyd Swenson (Alan's dad), Grandpa McBeth, and Dennis Crawford (Alan's uncle).
After church (and a short nap for the girls) we headed out for a family Easter dinner. They hid a few Easter eggs for Elsie to find.
She had a great time finding them all and I felt even better about not having anything planned for Easter. Yay for extended family! :)
We put Alice back in the blessing dress to try and get a few pictures of her in it, and she was not happy about it. She was especially not happy about having to sit in the bumbo so we could get a good picture of the dress.
Sometimes all you really need is an Uncle Eric and a thumb. I think this is one of my favorite pictures. It shows off the dress and captures Alice's true nature.
