Allison's Blessing Day

I realized a while back that I had not put any pictures from Allison's blessing on our blog. I briefly mentioned it but did not have pictures because they were not on my camera. Well... here they are! Better late than never.

We blessed our sweet little Allison on November 2, 2008. It was lovely. Her father gave her a wonderful blessing. Having all our family there made her day extra special. Allison wore a beautiful dress with a tiny pearl bracelet, crocheted shoes, and a pretty headband. We (my mom and I) bought her dress with the idea that it will be a family heirloom. We had Allison's name and birth date embroidered on the slip. All the baby girls born on my side of the family will wear the same dress and have their names and birth dates embroidered as well. It is our hope that it will be passed from generation to generation.
We are very lucky to be her parents and love our baby so much!

Allison, you bring so much happiness to our hearts and home.

We love you!

That is such a cute dress and a cute girl in it. She has gotten so big since then. It was so fun to see you!

So sweet. Looks like it was a really special time. I love your hair that length, by the way. So cute!
