Micah's Blessing

Jason and I have always joked that we would have Micah's baby blessing in Cour d'alene Idaho. We drive to visit family at least once a month, especially in the summer, and we tease that it would be nice for our family to drive to us once in a while. None of my babies have been blessed in their home ward, and I really wanted it this time. It didn't work out that way at all, and you know what? It was perfect. (I guess there is a life lesson there ;)

We held the blessing on a Saturday in my Grandparents hollow. As a child I totally imprinted on that place. It really just feels like a sacredplace to me, so to have the blessing there was really special. The best party was that I was really grateful for all the family support we did get. I really love my families! Some people really had to sacrifice to get there and that means a lot.

Uncle Zach with the star of the day. He is such an awesome uncle. My kids adore him.

The proud parents.

The men from Jason's side of the family. I really wanted a picture of them blessing Micah...but you know...rules. :)

Ciara took some great pictures of both families.

This is the Maughan/Ranzenberger clan.

Grandma and Grandpa Ranzenberger.

I think my mom looks really good in this picure. I guess we all like green. Must be genetic. This is my mom and her mother.

Beki, Mandi (Jason's sisters) Brennen, and oh boy. I need to remember how to spell Cecilee. Cecili? Help me Mandi!

It was a beautiful day, and Jason gave a beautiful blessing. When it was over we were able to go to Benson to celebrate Grandpa Ranenberger's birthday.
