Eventful Lovely Weekend

The weekend is over...now I can think about it with fondness and enjoy it all over again. When events are happening it's sometimes hard to enjoy them, it is only afterwards one can think back and re-visit the event, then enjoy it! Bentley was blessed Sunday by Matt (he was a nervous wreck) in our family we don't throw ourselves out there in church giving talks, prayers or testimonies! We try to go unnoticed....Bentley screamed during the whole blessing causing Matt to forget everything he had planned to say. It was a first (maybe last) time he's blessed a baby. In case Matt ever reads my blog the reason for my last comment was because he's such a great uncle and son and brother....and doesn't seem in too big of a hurray to have his own. But he gave a wonderful sweet blessing. We had a dinner afterwards (at 10:30 am) I stayed up all night cooking.....I needn't Have worried it was just our family plus my dear sister Jane who held Bentley while we ate! Scott and Kim dropped by a little latter but it was a nice morning. Then I fell asleep.....

Madison Made the sign for the food table

Later in the day we ran over to Heather's for Ada's 1st birthday party! (she actually turned 1 on 2/19) but has been sick the last month and this has been postponed several times. Heather knocked herself out on the decorations. The photo above was uncooperative and would not post upright. Check out her fireplace, I swear she worked for days on these darling decorations. A fun filled day and night.

On Saturday I also went up to my sister Wendy's with my Mom. My cousins Matt and Tim came for breakfast. What a fun time it was. so good to see them after a lot of years. Neither had aged, and hearing about their lives was a lot of fun. Wendy had a book of poetry that their dad Warren brought back from his mission years ago for my dear Grandma. He had written in it, and she graciously gave it to them. I wish I had some photos to share but it was the one time I forgot my camera!
