Brayden's Blessing Day

December 4, 2011 was a very special day for our family.  Don was able to give Brayden a name & a blessing in our Three Fountains Ward.  We were hoping that more of our family could be there for this special occasion, but for those that made the effort to come we really appreciate their dedication.  It was a little bitter-sweet because we didn't have Grandpa Larson, Uncle Royce, Uncle Bruce, Uncle Richard or any of the uncles on the Donaldson side in the prayer circle.  However, we did have Uncle Cal (my mom's oldest brother), Grandpa Donaldson, Uncle Brandon, Uncle Robert, and Uncle Robin all in the circle with Don and Bishop Sharp.  In just 4 weeks I was able to make Brayden's blessing suit, get our house somewhat cleaned and in order, and make dinner for all the family that came into town.  We took lots of pictures, but somehow (probably because we were so busy) Uncle Cal & Aunt Marnee escaped the camera.  We had a great day and it was nice and sunny in Mesa, AZ despite the rain & snow storms around the rest of the state the day before.
