Labor Day weekend was a crazy one, we usually have our owen family reunion up to beaver mountain, but this year we decided to bless wytten since how he would be about 2 months old. I had been trying to get everything together a couple of weeks before so we weren't scramblin to get everything done at the very last minute, but you know me i didn't get everything done and was still scramblin. Saturday ike had a little league football game and then we ran to brigham to get some last minute things. I needed to get pictures of wytten made up for the tables and for people to take home and i needed to get some more plates for the dessert stands i made (pinterest). Marlie didn't want to go up to beaver moutain with my family for the evening so she so graciously stayed home to help me and she was a big help. Once we got home from brigham we thought we better try his blessing outfit on since how i hadn't done that yet; i had to get him a size 3-6 for the length cause the 0-3 were shorts on him. This made the legs a little big on him, but it wasn't too bad; ike had seen a way to make ties for little boys so he put himself to the test and made one for wytten boy. It turned out so cute and it was precious to see him over on the couch hand sewing a little red tie for his first little boy; i don't know many guys who can hand sew a tie let alone would want to try and do it! Sunday was such a special day, he slept good through the night and woke up normal time and was good through out the day making us hope he would stay that way for the blessing. Right as soon as we got ready to leave to head to church he started to scream, so i got him out and held him for a sec to try and calm him down, it worked until i put him back into his carseat to leave again. We hoped in the short distance we had to drive to church that he would settle down, well the lord blessed us cause by the time we got to church he had fallen asleep. He stayed asleep until all the guys started to touch him up in the circle and it was like he wanted to see everyone that had came to support him and shot his eyes wide open. He has lots of loved ones that came to support him, he had 20 guys in the circle...more like an oblong shape. Ike did an amazing job on the blessing and the spirit was so strong, this little boy is going to have a lot to live up to and will be blessed very much if he follows the things which his dad blessed him with. After the blessing wytten got hungry so i went into the mothers room and fed him; while i was in there ike got up and bore his testimony, i love him and i don't know how i have been so blessed with such 2 amazing men in my life. After church we headed out to fielding town hall to have a luncheon, it turned out good and i had ordered plenty of food (i would rather have a ton left over then feel stupid and not have enough). All in all it was a very spiritual day and i am thankful for the wonderful gospel and the difference it has made in our lives so far. I am thankful that ike is a worthy priesthood holder and was able to bless wytten with the blessing he did. Love you both so much!!
