So I need to do a little catch up.
We blessed Ari on May 1st. It was such a wonderful day, she looked so adorable in her white dress, and Ben did a great job with the blessing, it was so tender and loving, he is a wonderful Daddy. My amazing aunt knows short hand, she wrote down the blessing for us and typed it up. I just thought that was the neatest thing! Ari will have that to look back at for years to come, and always remember the words her Daddy said for her on her blessing day. I didn't take pictures like I wanted to and I could seriously kick my self for that :( We got a few pictures though, and I had her pictures done professionally with the blessing dress on, so we have that! After sacrament we had a get together with some friends and family, it was quite the ordeal! In Ben's family it is tradition to invite EVERYONE! Which is fun, but if you both have large families it can get to be alot! So I just invited my immediate family and we invited Ben'e extended family. Sorry my family but its not really tradition to go to everyone's blessings so I figured you'd all be ok with just an announcement. It was a large group of probably 85 or so! We had yummy food and talked and just had a great celebration for my sweet little Ari!
