Blessing Cody

Last Sunday we blessed Cody in sacrament meeting. Kevin (Brian's brother) was planning a trip up from California to go mountain biking in Utah county, and he hadn't ever participated in one of our babies' blessings before so we took that opportunity. Which also meant that Brian's mom and dad were able to hitch a ride with Kevin and be here for the event also.

Brian was sick that weekend with a very sore throat. He was so horse that the deacon holding the microphone had to make sure it was right up against Brian's lips. Brian gave a very nice blessing, and Cody didn't even cry until the very end.

Although we had plenty of family at the blessing to support us, it was hard for me to not have anyone from my side of the family there. I was missing everyone - especially Tasha who had just moved a couple weeks before. But, of course, it was still a very special day.
