Jackson's Blessing




Cody blessed Jackson today. It was a very special day. Jackson had his Grandpa and Great Grandpa Dale and uncles Kevin and Scott and friend Jeff there in the circle with him. He screamed the entire time! We could barely hear what Cody was saying but I was still bawling like a baby. Then we went to Keri's for a big family dinner. There, Cody's dad gave his mom a special blessing because she will be going in for heart surgery on tuesday. She is in our thoughts and prayers right now and we love her so much. Jackson is very lucky to have such a wonderful grandmother and she absolutely adores him. Pictures of him in his blessing outfit will be coming soon.

What a special day. Some babies just like to scream during blessings, he's not the first nor will he be the last. We'll pray for Sherri too, hopefully all goes well.

He is so gorgeous guys! We so wish we could have been there for Jackson's blessing. It's so hard being so far away and missing stuff like that!

Man... Cody is on the ball! Matt's working on being ready to bless Max, but if he has to wait much longer he's going to have my dad do it. We were kind of lazy for a while & didn't go to church so much, so my bishop wants Matt to do this big old packet that Matt doesn't have time for. Anyway that's awesome that he got his blessing! He is so dang cute! How is Cody's mom doing? Your mom told me about the heart surgery. Scarey stuff! I hope everything goes smooth.

Cody, Melissa and Jackson
