Abram's Blessing

We had Abram's baby blessing this last Saturday, December 29th.  Rather than bless him in sacrament meeting, we decided to do it at the clubhouse here at our townhouse complex.  It was really nice to have our family and some friends there and to be able to visit immediately afterwards.  Nate and I were really surprised and touched by how many came to show their love and support for our family.  Those attending included: My mom, my sister Sarah, my dad and step-sister Allie, Nate's parents and sisters, his brother Andrew, Grandpa Barnum, Uncle Dean and Aunt Kat, Nate's cousins Micheal, Elizabeth, and Rebecca and their families, Uncle Dan and Aunt Julie, Bishop Jones and his wife Jean, and our friends the Hightowers. 

Abram looked so handsome in his little white outfit and he was in a great mood!  Nate gave a sweet and simple blessing and then we all had some food and did some chatting.

This one's a bit blurry, ugh.  This is our little family with our parents, siblings, and Grandpa Barnum.

Our handsome boy! 

Proud parents!  Can you tell that Nate was a little tired of having his picture taken?  This is his "take the picture so I can stop smiling" smile.
