Liam's Blessing Day!

Here is Noah with Grandpa Bill on his Blessing day. I think that Liam looks so much like Noah until I compare their pictures directly-
















Here is Liam on Sunday morning before church in his big boy clothes.. I'm not one for white tuxedos...Noah was 7-8 weeks old and Liam was 6 weeks old on his blessing day.
I think that they were blessed on February 2nd and 3rd - 5 years apart exactly! It was a nice day and I was so glad that both sets of grandparents could be there. Colin gave a nice blessing and it wasn't until Testimony meeting was almost over that I thought, hmm, maybe I should get up there.. I had been out changing Liam's diaper and I am so brain dead in general, that I didn't event think of it.. I will have to get up there one of these days.. It was a nice day but then later, my mom got in a minor car accident! I was dreading that my parents would regret coming but the car was still driveable and so they ended up leaving Sunday afternoon before the Superbowl was over to try and miss some of the Vegas-LA traffic.. It was the first time that I was REALLY SAD (to the point of tears) having my parents leave. I would love to have my mom living next door at this point! Seriously- that is the only way my house would be clean.

I recognize your Oregon carpet in the picture of Noah...and now I am all homesick again. Ah, how I miss that place. Liam's blessing was awesome and Cody was really glad that he got to participate. We were talking the other day about how when you are friends for long enough, you just become family instead. I think we're pretty much there...the great thing...no matter what...we'll always be around...the not so great things...we probably will continue to have ups and downs...it's all good. We love you guys!

Before I read and just saw the picture, I thought wow- Liam looks like Noah! Those boys are sure cute. I can't believe that Noah is five! Anyway, thanks for all the pics. Uncle Bill always looks so happy when he's surrounded by his grandkids. I imagine he's attentive in ways that grandpa was to us. That puts a smile on my face just thinking about it, you know- stealing our dessert and what not. Have a great day!

Liam looks so cute...I was never one for the white tux either. Sounds like it was a great day!
