And thanks to these perfect hosts:
Wes' blessing day was absolutely perfect.
It is really such a special experience to have a child blessed. It's amazing to watch my husband pray to understand what our Heavenly Father wants said to one of His youngest earthly children. Heavenly Father watches over us and is aware of us from day one, and a baby blessing is an amazing testament to that, and definitely strengthened my testimony as I heard Brian bless Wes with health, strength and the ability to decipher between right and wrong as the years goes by.
We continue to pray for Wes (and Thad of course) and hope we are teaching him and leading him as our Father would want us to help the special blessings of a mission, temple worthiness and marriage and a strong testimony of our Savior come to be a reality as he grows up in a world where the decisions to make these blessings a reality is only getting harder. The Lord is watching over our family and we are so thankful for the wonderful opportunity to bless our perfect boy.
Our amazing families and friends joined us on this special day to celebrate our perfect baby boy.
We cannot express the love and joy we felt surrounded by these wonderful people.
It sure is an amazing feeling to know our child is loved and not just by us.
These two are so amazing and drove down from Boise with their 4 kids for the occasion.
That's love.
Such great support to have our wonderful friends there.
It is so fun to have all these babies around! They are all so special.
We all enjoyed a delicious lunch thanks to everybody that came, and it's beauty was thanks to a wonderful Aunt Jenny who sure knows how to make a party look good!
And everyone sure seemed to be enjoying themselves!
And I have to say that the cousins seemed to enjoy themselves the most.
Nothing like the whole family being together!
All of them doted over Wes and it was really special for me to watch that.
Things like this make me sit and think about what my babies are missing out on.
But I also know that because we're not close, it makes it that much more special when the cousins do get to be with my boys, and I HAVE to focus on that.
Avery is a mini baby whisperer.
I would consider leaving both of my children in her care. Even if she is only 5.
And thanks to this great lady, our family will enjoy these perfect images that captured our joy from that perfect day.

Ahh! He is so cute, Shell! The hair kills me. Sounds like a perfect day. You are so right that days like that make living away that much harder. I love the picture of Brian and Wes with the temple in the background. Perfect! And I say this every time, but I MISS YOU!
Such a beautiful post Shell. Wow, I'm going to start calling Wes 'baby on fire' THAT HAIR! My word, I'll never get over it :) Brian did an amazing job, it was such a special day. Thank you for allowing us to be a part of it! We miss you dearly but cherish these fun and special memories. All of the pictures look great, Brig did such a nice job.
Love you. Love those those boys. Miss you more!
Um, that picture of Thad and Wes???? Is to DIE for. I might hang it up in my house... creepy? maybe.
So precious! That looks like it was amazing and I'm so sad that we had to miss it. So happy for you guys and your adorable family! Just wish you were closer!
