utah day 4: blessing day!

Finally the reason for our trip--Asher's Blessing! We decided to bless Asher in Utah because we have so much family there and the family that doesn't live there, can get to Utah much easier than NC. Jared's Uncle Scott and Aunt Angelle were gracious enough to let us have the blessing in their home. Sadly, it was a rainy, cloudy, cold day, so we didn't get to take pictures outside. Hence, we didn't get great pictures. In fact, I am going to squeeze Asher back into his blessing outfit and take some pictures of him.


Family Picture


I'm sad this was the best picture of us with Asher. I wish we had taken the time to get a better one.


Asher was cuddled by lots of family.

And very chill with Aunt Hilary


We were also lucky to have some of my wonderful college friends come!


Rachel is married to Jared's cousin and had her baby Caden the same day as Asher. In fact, they were born just 40 minutes apart! Rachel and Spencer surprised everyone and drove from Colorado for the weekend!


Of course we had to get the boys to pose for some photos.


Asher got more cuddles from 'Auntie' Jennifer and 'Auntie' Liz


All in all, it was a lovely day! Thank you to everyone who came!!!
