Jackson's Blessing Day

The day before we left Utah we had another special family event... Our first grandson was blessed. It was so nice that we were able to be there, and that Kevin (Grandpa West) could be there to stand in the circle with his Dad (Jackson's Great Grandpa West), Jack, & three of his four brothers & their Dad. Quite a few extended family members were at church with Natalie & Jack as well. I think our "family members" made up almost 1/2 the congregation that day.

Jack gave Jackson Keith Shirts a beautiful blessing.



After the blessing we all went over to Keith & Ada's home (my brother & sister-in-law) for lunch and visiting time. It was a beautiful day!

All that big get-together and Jackson didn't even know the fuss was all about him!
