Brek's Blessing Day

The day after Brek was sealed to me and Joe, Brek was blessed by his father. Thanks to my Aunt Diana, we actually have the blessing recorded. It was beautiful.

Here's a picture of Brek with all the family members that were in the blessing circle. We also had a couple friends from Church that joined in, but we weren't able to catch them for the kodak moment.
Back: Dustin Belt, Great Grandpa John Bennett, Uncle Mark Biggs, Uncle Peter Jensen, Grandpa Guy Biggs, JD Bennett (Amy's cousin), and Marte Green (Amy's Uncle.)
Front: Joe Dixon (Amy's cousin), Uncle David Biggs, Uncle Matt Asplund, and Joe Jensen with Brek Jensen.

After Church we did our best to take some pictures. Here's Brek all studly in his white suit and the special baby blanket from Bethlehem.With Grandpa Biggs

After that photo shoot we changed Brek's clothes into a very special outfit, which of course called for more pictures. Brek was a pretty good sport through most of it.
I got several of these pictures from my sister
LOVE this one too!

And with my Papa, who is now Grandpa Great

The rest of the pictures are from my sister - she's much better at capturing fun moments. These are from all throughout the weekend while hanging out.

We were SO grateful to Joe's sister and brother-in-law that let all of my family come and stay at their house so we could all be together and still have room to breathe. :) We had a wonderful time!Our first day together: Tummy time for grandparents and babies. That's my niece Aurora next to Grandma. Aurora is 5 weeks younger than Brek.
Showing off that cute brown body. Cousin love!
This was the first time Brek acknowledged another baby; he sure loves them now.Just a cute picture of Aurora and Brek
Hanging out on Sunday - me, my dad, and my oldest brother Mark.
And ending with a picture of Adelynne (dressed as Belle), Amy (dressed as Ariel), and Grandma (dressed as herself), playing Sorry.

It was such a wonderful weekend. And I LOVED being surrounded by my family - it doesn't happen enough! Wish we could have done more photo shoots with Grandma Jensen and all the Jensen family that was around too, but it just wasn't able to happen. But you aren't forgotten!
