Day 10 (7-06-08) Babies blessed in church.

Sunday, we had the twins blessed in the church. They wore their beautiful white gowns that Grandma Bowman got for them. Aunt Deanna made the girls their blankets. This is Brenna all in white.
A sleeping Brenna looking like a little angel.
Another picture but with different lighting.
Here is Chantrell. She is awake and not quite happy but she still looks beautiful.
I love all the ruffles and lace on the girl's dresses. Another picture of Chantrell but with a flash for lighting.Here are the twins together in the lobby of the church.Both the girls have their eyes closed now. You can see that the blankets have different designs and the yarn feels different too.Brian blessed Brenna and it was his first baby blessing. He did a great job. Vince blessed Chantrell and he has blessed all of his kids and Zoey, Brian's daughter. He did a great job too. Thank you to both of you for your priesthood holding and ability to bless my daughters.
I love this picture of the girls and their uncles. It is so pure and full of love.We did a photo shoot at home, but Chantrell was not happy. It is hard to get good pictures with both girls happy in them.Ohhhh...sweet baby girls. Brenna looks concerned and Chantrell just wants her bottle.As we were taking pictures, the girls kept falling over. They don't have the stomach muscles yet to hold themselves up. I think this picture is really cute with them laying over on each other.This is what the kids were doing later in the day. They were making paper fashions and then hanging their designs on little hangers.
Jazmine and Ryan loved playing the game, Settlers of Cattan.The little boys were glued to the Disney channel.A sleeping Chantrell on the couch.A sleeping Brenna on the other couch.A grown up Stephanie just chillin' out. She looks so much like her mom, Lisa.
A different view of all the kids in the living room.Jenn and her little girl Zoey. Every time I wanted to take their picture, Zoey would cover her face with her hands. So we made a game of it.PEEKA......BOO!!!! That worked.I see you Zoey. That was a fun game.
Grandma and Zoey are playing the "bumpy head" game. They both have lots of curls in their hair.That's a cute picture.
Ahhhhh...three generations. Mom, Jenn, and Zoey all hugging each other.Lisa is in the kitchen showing us her booty. Barry is enjoying the show. I don't remember why she is showing us her backside, but it must have been funny at the time.Jazmine got this picture of me while I had my eyes closed. Mommy of twins doesn't get much sleep at night.Picture of my mommy.
Jazmine was putting her crazy hat on Barry.Funny hat on funny Barry. He is such a good sport."Hey...who turned out the lights?!"The hat looks much better on you, Jaz!! We all had fun hanging out that day. We were sad to see Debbie's family leave Saturday and Erica's family leave on Sunday.

I made a comment about your picture of Zoey and your cute game on your day 9, anyway so cute and clever. I liked how you took pictures of everyone just doing whatever at that time. It's like being a fly on the wall when you can't be there. We were sad to leave Saturday and hung out until about 11 am chatting and then we really had to leave, we wished we could have said goodbye to you all but we had a really long two day drive home. It was too short of a vacation. We have been swamped with helping Ashley getting ready for her move. There's packing and painting the new home and cleaning and sorting and organizing. Tonight we go back to finish packing and to the new rental to finish painting. Tomorrow we help her move. I'll post more about it and some pictures soon.

You took the cutest pictures!!! I loved them. The candid shots of Zoey playing peek a boo were so cute. I loved the ones of me and Zoey too and I usually hate ones of myself. I miss everyone so much and don't want to wait a whole YEAR before everyone comes again. Come visit sooner everyone. Maybe we can come visit too. I hope so.
