So much activity, this is only a sampling. Many more pictures. Our good friends came down from Utah forthe occasion, plus lots of friends and family here in town. There was baseball, kickball, eating, running, and lots of fun...oh and lots of food, that was just the desert table. And it was so delicious. We had a house and yardful to celebrate the birth and blessing of our Linda Grace. Where would I be without my friends and family? I am so grateful for everyone that helped me feed the masses! I am thankful for those that made the effort to be here and celebrate with us. My mother should have some kind of award....she outdid herself with helping me decorate, plan, and make yummy food! Our big family picture includes my best friends two kids....it was pretty funny. The picture of Naomi running is my favorite, she looks like a football player! She is so determined. Joshua was in heaven with all his cousins and friends (especially Ali since he only sees her occassiionally). In Linda's blessing, E'lan told her that she was here by the grace of God and that she has a strong spirit, whose influence will be felt abroad. He promised her that her ailments can be healed through the power of the priesthood, and he said that she would marry a worthy priesthood holder in the temple. She is a stalwart daughter of God whose purpose here is not happenstance. We are so lucky to have this little angel in our life! I can't wait to watch her life unfold and bask in the goodness of her!
