Ava's blessing day






Ava was blessed on Sunday. It was a great day full of family and friends. Chad gave a beautiful blessing, as usual. My family saw me bear my testimony...a rare privilege. Our thanks to all those who helped us make this a great day. I forgot my camera so here are some I got from others. Doesn't Ava look older than 9 weeks?
