Gabriel was given a name and a blessing by his father (Bjorn) in our church on September 30th.
It was a short, sweet moment. But marked quite a milestone for us. How many other baby blessings have I been to? Now it was finally time to have our own posterity up there.
Bjorn looked snazzy in his suit. Gabe looked delightful, pue, and delicious in his white knit onesie/jumpsuit. and I looked tired.
We were most appreciative of all the wonderful people who came to the special event to show their love and support.
Aunt Marcelle hosted a luncheon for all the guests. I planned the menu. We enjoyed "little boy" foods: pizza bites, pigs in a blanket, chocolate milk, worms in dirt, swedish fish in blue jello (which didn't turn out as well as I had hoped) and cupcakes decorated like sports balls (those didn't turn out so good either... but it was fun to try!) And mommy's favorite luncheon foods: stuffed ham sandwiches, salad, and V8 splash.
Bjorns parents came down from WA for the event. We had a great weekend with them spoiling us and appreciated all their help with the luncheon- as well as letting use the hotel pool :)
