Braden's Blessing

Braden was blessed on Sunday, June 3rd. We had to wake up really early to make sure we got there on time for 9 o'clock Sacrament meeting. My neighbor took some pictures for me in his blessing outfit a few days before the blessing.

After church we invited some family and friends over for brunch. I am so glad we had them over to celebrate with us. We took the opportunity to take a family pic for this special occasion.

Braden with grandma and grandpa Gardiner.

Look at his cute chubby face ;)

The little miss actually got in for this picture with her grandma and grandpa Olsen

Brian gave him a beautiful blessing. I am so thankful to have a worthy priesthood holder in our home and I pray that Braden will follow in his father's footsteps.
