Bethany’s Baby Blessing

IMGP9133Two weeks ago we left right after school and drove North to Utah for the weekend. Crazy? Yes. Fun? Yes! We went up for the blessing of our newest niece, Bethany!

On Saturday we played in the “snow” (leftover snow/ice), went to Thanksgiving point to see the dinosaur museum, and just played at the Keen home. The boys get along so well with their cousins!

Sunday was the blessing day and it was a nice blessing. We stayed for church and it is nice to be welcomed everywhere and to know that the church is true and the same wherever you go. President Holland’s son (and President of UVU) taught our Sunday school class (and he just sounded like an Apostle and when we found out who he was later it all made sense) and the boys loved primary/nursery and it was fun for me to go to Relief Society! We even tried to take an updated family picture!

We had a great weekend even though it was over so soon! After church we ate and played together until it was time to head back. We left Sunday night and drove all night in time to get Sammy to school the next morning I took the day off to get stuff done and just in case we had bad weather and didn’t make it home in time!

* We were double booked that weekend and missed out on the baptism of our niece Natalie (sorry!!) and were bummed but were told that it was beautiful too! We love you Nat!
