The Blessing

So, I've been having a blogger block lately, because I've wanted to post about Ella's blessing, but I haven't had a clue what to say. I mean, really, what is there to say? She got blessed. It was good. The End.

There, I said it, it's over, now we can all move on.

Though, it was so great to have family in town for the happy occasion, and we enjoyed every minute we got to spend with them. We also enjoyed the Red Velvet Cake we devoured on Sunday.

And I took a couple of pictures! Hooray for recording major life events! Here is Ella with Grandpa and Grandma Blockburger:
Here she is with Aunt Whitney (Ella was less than thrilled with life at this point):

Ella with Aunt Kim and Uncle Patrick:

And Ella with Grammie and Opa:


Finally, we thought we'd get a family shot. Only to discover that it is impossible to get a good picture with 2 little girls. This is the best we got:


Julia, looking like an orphan, and kind of giving everyone a crusty look. So we took Julia out of the equation:

And then I noticed that we've got a picture of Julia as a baby on the screensaver of our computer in the background. So it's like an unintentional photoshop effort. . except it's a picture from 2 years ago. Meh, I still like it.

Blessing post: over. Other stuff to come.
