On Sunday, July 8th, we blessed Anna Lucia in church. Members in the circle included Papa D, Grandpa, Uncle Brian, Brother Larson of the bishopric, and Dad did the blessing. Uncle Pete was invited but unable to attend. The dress, just like for Mae's, was designed and made by Grandma and it turned out really great...too bad she grew out of it within the next week+. It was a good experience and outside of being fussy for less than 10 seconds and then kicking me in the gut, Anna was great. I, of course, lion kinged her at the end. I thought maybe I'd only Lion King my first born, but it was just so fun the first time that I got caught up in the moment and did it again. Actually, I planned to do it all along. It was good to have special guest Aunt Laurie and cousins Rylee, Alleah, and Siena also there (amongst Anna's Cincinnati Aunt, Uncle, and cousins and everyone else that lives here). -T
