Well, we finally blessed Liesl (for those of you who are not Mormon, this is similar to christening a baby). We were so lucky to have both Sean's and my parents up for the blessing. It was a nice day as you can see from the pictures. I made Liesl's blessing gown (with lots of help from Mom Taylor--she made the petticoat and helped me finish and iron the dress). It was a really fun project--I bought the lace from a "trim" shop in New York called M&J Trimming and bought a book on making heirloom clothing. I am going to take Liesl to have her pictures taken professionally (JC Penneys or similar) of her in the dress--you can't really see the details in these photos. I'm glad I did it (it was alot of work...) and hopefully Liesl will use it for her kids in the future!!:)

So beautiful Jenny! I can't wait to see close-ups of the dress. You are so amazing! I am glad the day was so wonderful for you all. Sorry I have missed your calls lately. We had friends in town and things have really been crazy around here. I will call soon.
She's such a cutie! Glad mom and dad could make it up there. :) love you guys!
