We blessed Harrison last Sunday and it was great fun! Cory's parents came for a
WHOLE WEEK for the event and it was absolutely wonderful to have my in laws around to help me with the baby, weed our front yard (something I have been trying to find time to do forever!! It's amazing how just getting those little things done can make such a big difference), clean our house, buy us groceries, take us out to dinner, and pretty much save my life a hundred times over!! (I took the MPRE last saturday and there is no way I would have even had a chance to pass without all of the babysitting help!!)
THANK YOU THANK YOU THANK YOU!!! Cory's sister Lindsay also came for the weekend from BYU and my mom and Larry and brother and great friends came for the blessing and over to our house afterwards (any excuse to miss the last two hours of church right??). Harrison enjoyed being passed around and ogled and the rest of us enjoyed yummy soup and salad and these awesome red velvet cupcakes I made :) Here are some pics, mostly courtesy of Kerri. As a side note, in some Harrison is wearing his adorable blessing outfit and some he's not..what can I say as much as my kid spits up I got him into something a little less stain-able as soon as possible!
See my cute outfit!!! Bib protected of course...
