Alexa was officially given a name and blessing on August 28, 2011. Harrison gave the blessing and he did a wonderful job! I was able to have someone write down the words of the blessing and I have them in her book, so I will not mention them all here. But the things he said were truly wonderfully inspired and given with care. He is a good Daddy! It is so wonderful to know Alexa is sealed to us and will be a part of our family forever!
I was able to get some pictures up of her blessing day so here they are (Sorry, they turned out kind of blurry on here!):

Alexa in her blessing dress. My great Grandma Bill (Alexa's great-great Grandma) made this dress. It was the same dress I was blessed in. She also crocheted this blanket. The name of the pattern is called "Angel"...so fitting! They are both gorgeous and my grandma is a remarkable woman!! |
