Hayden's Blessing

Hayden was given a name and blessing on March 6th 2011 by her Grandpa Mike. I was so nervous, because I was worried my Dad wouldn't get her name right. She was named after my Mom Kathryn, and I was afraid that he would say Swenson instead of Dent, but he didn't mess up. Chris was able to stand in the circle and then he held her up after to show her off.

It was funner to pick out a blessing dresses for her then for an outfit for Triston's blessing. I even made her hair band and it complemented her dress nicely. I wish that my mom could have been here to see it. I bet should would have been so proud of me, because I had to improvise and sew a lining into the dress free hand. It turned out better than I thought it would have. I feel like I am becoming my mom every day.

I ended up getting pictures in her blessing dress when I got her 3 month old pictures taken.

She looked so beautiful!

I wanted Triston to look nice to, so i bought him a suit to look good in at the blessing, but once we came home he took it off immediately. He looks like such a little man when he is wearing his suit.

I love this picture!

After the blessing we had brunch over at the house with our families. A few of the family members couldn't stay and had to leave right after the blessing. Because of that, I ended up having a lot of left over food. We had fun talking and holding Hayden. It was an awesome day.
Family members that came; Grandma Carol, Grandpa Richard, Katelyn, Shara, Baby Hunter, Sam, Mindy, Cash, Daxon, Alex, Amie, Gavin, my Aunt Pam and Uncle Dave. The family members that came to the blessing, but not the brunch; Fred, Jaelann, Grandma Billy, Aunt Pam Clark, and Aunt Collette.
