We blessed Leila yesterday in my aunt and uncle's ward up in Bountiful. My cousin Scott recently returned home from his mission and was giving is homecoming talk, so we decided to kill two birds with one meeting. The day couldn't have gone better!

My Grandma Larsen made her beautiful blessing dress and Jason gave her an equally beautiful blessing. My uncles Bryan and Garth, Grandpa Larsen, Dad, Daddy Z, and cousin Ryan were all able to be in the circle (and more were on standby if there had been enough room!). Some bullet points I pulled from the blessing were these:
* She will bring joy to those around her
* She will be able to overcome the trials of an evermore troubling world.
* She will be bless as she strives to become like the Savior.
* She will lead her family.
We've certainly got one special girl in our family! I am also grateful for all of the family that was there to support us and for those who wished they could have been there.
