We decided to bless Grant on December 07, 2014 in Highland. Blake's brother adopted a baby in May and it was finalized right before Thanksgiving so they were able to have him be sealed to their family in the temple and also have him blessed. We decided to do Grant's blessing at the same time and just make it one big celebration.
Besides Grant and Dash, there were two other blessings in the ward. Four baby boys were blessed. Grant's blessing was third. He was so good during the blessing and Blake said he was awake and just looking around the entire time. I was so touched afterward because I hadn't taken notes during the blessing and was hurrying trying to remember and write things down. After the meeting, a woman from the ward came up to me and said that she had taken notes and gave them to me. I was so touched and happy that someone felt compelled to do that for me.
During the testimonies several people mentioned how special it was to have 4 blessings in a Sunday and what a special time of year to have a new baby as we remember the birth of our Savior.
After sacrament meeting, we went back to Chris and Launa's house for brunch. Brooke and Porter loved being able to see and play with cousins. My mom and brother Jared also came. Blake's work schedule is crazy this month so we aren't able to make it any of the family Christmas parties this year. We were happy that we were able to celebrate with them this weekend.
