We decided to have the blessing at home to make it easier for family that had to travel to Bellingham. This also made it possible to have lunch immediately after. Let's face it. We're all about food. Any chance we have to eat food. We do.
Alex's family was a huge help (aren't they always?) in getting things ready. Unfortunately things took a little longer than anticipated, so I was still running around like a crazy lady in my apron when people got there. At least it's a cute apron. Yes, those are pans of cinnamon rolls. And yes, I continued making cinnamon rolls into that week because I was craving them. I used this recipe from one of my favorite websites.
Waiting...
Look! It's Jenna's cute baby, Lily!
Still waiting... and baby wasn't dressed because we couldn't find all of his outfit. So we improvised with some very Northwest attire - a flannel shirt and khaki pants.
Still waiting... Who has the worst posture in the room?? I do!
Still waiting... but wait... the baby has fallen asleep. This is a good thing. Sleeping baby = no fussing during his blessing! We like this.
Here is the wonderful group of men that participated in Robert's blessing. Everyone in this group has been a huge part of my life in some way. Thank you all for being there, it meant a lot to us. (Left to Right: Terry Jones, Jr, Terry Jones Sr, Daniel Fletcher, Steve Booth, Alex and Baby Robert, Scott Cunningham, Dad Miller, Robert Miller, Michael Miller and Scott Chambers).
A closer look. Robert has checked out.
Rachel and her best accessory (besides the cute purse) - Robert!
Still checked out... and probably needing a nap at this point.
It was a great day with beautiful weather to boot.
