Kalli's blessing and more....


This is late, but I feel like I'm still catching up. Kalli was blessed on April 12th. We had to try and fit it in between Leland being gone to POST training in Boise and me going back to work. Turns out it was about the only sunday we could do it and it was kind of a special day too. This year that was Easter and it was also our 1 year anniversary! So pretty cool!



Kalli's Grandma Barney made her blessing dress and did all the embroidery on it. She used the same pattern that was used to make her own blessing dress. So we all think it's pretty extra special!




It was a great day, except that Leland had to leave right after dinner to head back to Boise. We're so glad he's home!! and he passed!!







We all knew he could do it but he was pretty nervous for awhile there. Now the question is will he go back sometime for 13 more weeks if they ask him?
Kalli's Grandma and Grandpa Smith were excited to see her. They came with his sister Trinette and her family about a week after we got home from the hospital. It was good to have them all come.




We ended up having a shower after she got home since she surprised us a little early. This is the cute diaper cake Abbie and Haley made for her. She got some really cute stuff!

  1. The dress is BEAUTIFUL!!! Love it! You guys look so happy in the picture of the three of you. Boy have you been through a lot in the last few months! Congrts Leland on passing your training.

    BTW...I was introduced to the bumbo seat this weekend - amazing! My cousin came up from Arizona with her little girl who is only a few weeks older than Kalli. She brought hers with her. I even put my tricky 15 month old nephews in and they couldn't get out!
