Baby Blessing

Alex's baby blessing was such a special day. Dave and I began preparing the night before readying the house for guests and dinner. Sunday morning Dave baked cookies, I made icing, and we got Alex and ourselves ready for church. Dave did a great job on his blessing. It was wonderful to have so many family members there to support us. Alex was a little fussy while Dave was bringing him to the front of the chapel but after his daddy started talking he quieted right down. Afterwards we all crammed in our little condo for dinner. Thanks for coming everyone! (from Provo, Idaho, SL, and Midway!)

Have you ever...

... bought anything without looking at the price... because you were running through the grocery store with a crying baby?

I have.

I had never bought pine nuts before but thought they would be yummy and save me the time of making croutons on the salad I was bringing to "cousin dinner". (a monthly dinner my cousins and I have :)

Dave wasn't able to attend the dinner but when I got home he said, "Did you know the pine nuts you bought were $50 a pound?" WHAT!!! Good thing it was only .2 lbs, totaling $10. "I didn't even look at how much they were!" (Another answer he loved :)

Haha.
