The Blessing






Just a couple more pictures.  
So it was really hard to find a day to bless Julia because so many babies were being born and blessed at the same time.  We would have done it the first sunday in January, but Ben's sister Roxanne was having her baby that weekend, so Ben's parents wouldn't have been there.  Then we would have done it the first Sunday in February, but Ben's sister Roxanne was blessing their baby, and they had to do it then because her husband is in the army and that's the only weekend he could come home.  So we blessed Julia on the 8th of February which turned out to be a not so good day to do it to.  Jeff and Heather were blessing their baby that day so Grandma and Grandpa Christensen had to decide which one to go to (they came to Jules') and Grandma and Grandpa Jensen had planned their trip to Arizona for that weekend because they thought we'd bless Julia the first Sunday in February so they couldn't be there at all!  

I guess I learned that I need to communicate better!!  Anyway, it was a great day, and Julia was beautiful and very good during her blessing!  Ben did a really good job! I think he was a little nervous, but he was very eloquent and said very nice things that I don't remember!
