Brynlee's Blessing Day

The McFarland's

Kaycee and Erik made the kind arrangements to gather family and friends to bless Brynlee during our brief visit to Nampa.  This touched us greatly and was totally unexpected.  I know how difficult it can sometimes be to make these kind of arrangements on short notice...and it wasn't even a "fast" Sunday.  Little Brynlee was only ten days old!  It was so very nice to hear Erik give his daughter both a blessing and name.  They have such a strong faith and beautiful family!  We were so pleased and proud to witness this very special occasion. It also meant a great deal to our boys, who look up to their big brother Erik's example and admire him so very much. 

Thank you Kaycee and Erik!

And many thanks to all of Kaycee's family who greeted us warmly and kindly.  Even though we live far away, it makes us happy that our grandchildren are surrounded by so many wonderful family members.

3 year old Jayden...so handsome!

Carson finally got his turn to hold his neice!  (He'd been begging to all weekend!)

Even Eden took a quick turn holding the baby!  But the baby was about done with being passed around...

Poor Daisy the cat...Eden found you again!

Silly kids...

I love Eden's big feet!... at least they were mostly clean!

Brynlee changed into this darling spring outfit that matched the beautiful weather!

She's so fashionable!

(I LOVE these last photos!)

She is so sweet!  I'm missing her and all of her family so much already. 

Erik and Kaycee, take care of our sweet princess until we see you later this summer!  We love you all so much!!!
