Jack's Blessing
Jack's blessing was really neat. We decided to do it at Dustin's parent's house instead of having everyone make the trip to Jackson. It was at 4:00 with a dinner right after at 4:30.
Dustin and I decided to put a little program together for it. We had an opening song and prayer, then Dustin gave a little talk about families. He did a really good job and made me tear up when he spoke about how much he loves our family. Alli and I sang a duet to "Come Unto Jesus." Alli did an amazing job with the alto part! There wasn't even a part written in, so she just made it up on the spot. Amazing, talented girl. The song went well. Right after we were done singing, Dustin blessed Jack. In the circle was Dustin, Milan, Rick, Steve, Tyson, Clark, Lance, and Dallin. It was a really neat blessing.
After that, we had a closing prayer and ate lasagna, salad, and rolls. For dessert was cake and ice cream. It was really tasty and the perfect end to an special day!
Our family after Jack was blessed.
Little Jack on his big day!
Tyson and Alli and Angie and Kate.
Elisha and Anna (Dana's daughter) and Lance and Andy. 
Jessie and Dallin came! Here's me and Jess with our babies!
The Miller granchild picture. Julie got all of the pretty dresses and clothes for the boys. Lillie, as always, threw a tantrum right when she saw the camera!
Dana got this cake. It said, "Congratulations Jack, Andy, and Sayde!" So... naturally we took a picture with the babies by the cake they never got to eat!

What a wonderful way to bless little Jack! So intimate and special.
I'm so glad that we were able to make it. It was a beautiful blessing and we love Jack so much!
What a great day!! 3 baby blessings? That is just so neat. I wish I could have heard you and Alli's duet. Alli is crazy when it comes to making up her own part. She has done that with a few songs we've song. She is quite talented! ANway, sounds like it was a special day.
That's so fun Rika!! It sounds like it was beautiful. And it's always great to have family around for such things. :)
What a great weekend! Jack's blessing was really special. It makes me so happy to think that we'll be doing the same thing in the summer with our new baby! That is so crazy to think. I'm glad we could be there for that special day of Jack's!
PS Thanks for the super nice compliments!!! You're too sweet. It was so fun being able to sing a duet with you!
