Hannah's blessing day

Hannah received her name and blessing today at church (our equivalent of a christening). Thank you to all of the friends and family who joined us! It was wonderful to have you all there.

We also took the opportunity to take some family photos.

I don't know when last we had a photo taken of my siblings and I. So here we are: Colleen, Cindy, Richard, Andrew and I.

The Powrie family.

Those of the Herbert family who could come (the grandchildren had had enough by this time!)

And this is the beautiful dress I got for Hannah to wear. She looks like an angel! And she behaved like an angel too. She was completely quiet for the blessing, and in fact for the whole day.

I was so grateful again today to have a husband who holds the Priesthood and who was able to bless Hannah, in the same way that he did Joshua.
