Azalea's Blessing

Azalea was blessed by her daddy on July 8, 2012 in his parents' ward in Kaysville, Utah. Holly and Burd were really brave to drive from Hermiston to Utah with 2-month Azalea for the blessing! It sure made it nice for family and friends to be at this special event. Burd's sweet parents hosted the dinner and get-together afterwards at their home.

Here are some pictures to document the great occasion. I crocheted the blessing dress and booties and Jan knitted the blessing blanket. Little Azalea is sure loved!

I made a little slip and ruffled diaper cover, too.

This is the lovely, soft blanket Jan knitted for Azalea!

Azalea would have been happy to sleep all morning, it seemed.

We had to wake her up to get ready, and she didn't mind at all.

Yay! A bath! The day gets better!

Such a special day with her daddy!

Azalea's Uncle Jon set up a photo studio in Burd's parents' basement and snapped away. He shared these cute photos with me!

What a wonderful day! I'm pooped!
