Last Sunday, December 2nd, was a very special day for our family. It was the day that our precious daughter Amelia was blessed at the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter Day Saints in Dallas, Oregon. Her daddy gave her the blessing and was joined by Grandpa Rawe and Grandpa Whitaker as well as Brother Duranceau from the Dallas 1st Ward bishopric. She looked so beautiful in her special white dress, which just happened to be called 'sweetpea' a name her Grandpa Rawe calls Amelia, she also wore a pretty white headband and a special pearl and crystal bracelet that I had made especially for her. She was so quiet throughout the blessing and I got a little lump in my throat as I sat and listened to the words Matthew spoke, thinking of how grateful I am to have her as my daughter.
After church we went home and spent time with both sets of grandparents and had dinner together, then we watched the First Presidency's Christmas Devotional on BYU television.
Here are some photo's of this special occasion.

Oh, I'm so sorry I missed it! Probably for the best as my kids would have probably been a tad disruptive.
She is sooooo beautiful in her lovely white dress! I love the bracelet too.

What a beautiful little girl. I wish I could have been there. You finally have everything you've always wanted and I am so happy for you. I love you all.
