Jackson's Blessing




Jackson was blessed on Aug 24th by his Dad. It was such a wonderful day. A lot of planning went into the occation, and it was all worth it. I am so grateful to be his mom, even if I don't get very much sleep these days.












Some of my family got to come into town for the celebration. My Mom and step-dad flew out on Friday. We had a fun time together. Tanner loved his cousin Autumn. She was so good to play with him. She even taught him a thing or two about fashion. Notice the new picture of Tanner to the right as well!
My mom, and husband are such good sports. I came up with a great idea to make a cake to celebrate Jackson's big day. It didn't really go as I planned, but they sat up half the night helping me fix my mistakes. I love you guys!!

Jackson is a lucky boy. He was blessed with amazing Grandparents. He is really soaking up the attention here. My step-dad missed picture time. Sorry!

One of the things that made this weekend so special was getting to spent time with some of our family.

Tenise (Tanner calls her Neece) - Aunt Lauri - Aunt Brittany (funny picture, but Tanner really does love Brit-Brit)

Uncle Gary and Aunt Debbie - The Ewells (Tanner calls them all Morgan-she is the little girl on the right hand side in the picture.) - Cousin Autumn

Thanks to all who made this day extra special. We love you all!! We also missed those who couldn't make it. Jackson espially missed Aunt Kim, Uncle Ryan, Aunt Stephanie, Aunt Randi, Uncle James, Uncle Michael, Aunt Laura, Brendon, Carmen, Nolan, Aria, Little girl #3, Riley, Hailey, Sydney, Carley and all his great-grandparents!

We will make lots of fun memories in the future though!

Sounds like a great day! I am glad that you have photos to share of it. Tanner looks like he can be buddies with anyone - even when they teach him all about fashion - loved the shoe photo. Your Jackson is such a sweet little boy love all the photos of him - and by the way, you do not look like you just had a baby - not fair!
