Alora's Blessing



We spent 2 weekends in a row traveling to Wyoming for baby blessings! This time we only went as far as Rawlins (via a pit-stop in Rock Springs to stay the night with Stauffer cousins) and ended up having a quick Gardner family reunion. Matt's family from Heber City, Cheyenne, Kemmerer, Casper and even Houston all came for the weekend! 2 of their sisters weren't able to make it. One just had a baby and one is about to. :) We were able to use the church all day Saturday for the 24 grandkids (one was in Utah) to run around the gym and for everyone to play basketball, music, games and just visit! We ate great and had so much fun!






We miss our Houston family soooo much! They are the ringleaders of the "big kid" games! Some even stayed up 'till 2 in the morning to do the "reading of the rules" and then to play. We were amazed and glad that they made the trip!








Lingering longer on Saturday night! I am SO sad that I didn't take my camera out on Sunday and get any pictures of Glade and Connie and their family in their Sunday best! We were so excited for them! We love their family! Their kids are so cuddly and sweet and we really had a great time being with them!
Thanks for hosting such a great party you guys! We love you!!
