Yesterday we blessed Oliver at church. I'm so grateful to be married to someone that honors his priesthood and can perform such a beautiful act. He was joined with his dad, brothers, brother in laws, my dad, grandfather, and a few uncles. It was also the testimony meeting, and I was blessed to hear the testimony of Grandma Great and also a few of my nephews and nieces.
Here are a few pictures of the family after the blessing.
Above is a picture of all the Smithson cousins. If you look closely, you may spot Brandon. :)
Above is a picture of my lovely cousin, Liz, and her beautiful family. I was so happy they joined us.
This picture is of my Grandma and Grandpa George, and my dad (along with me and Oliver, of course). After church, we invited everyone over for lunch. We made soups (I made 3 different soups, and my wonderful sister in law made a 4th). And the rest of the Smithson's brought rolls and every kind of finger desserts you can possibly think of. It was amazing. (And, unfortunately, I was unable to try any of the desserts because they all had dairy. It was really hard... but I suppose this no-dairy thing is a blessing in disguise because my waist line won't hate me today from over sampling yesterday).Oliver, Thank you for joining our little family. We all love you so much.
