On January 9th, 2011 we Blessed our baby Azlin. (For those of you who are not of the Mormon faith, it is when a man holding the Priesthood gives the baby a blessing. you can find out more at www.lds.org)
Azlin was blessed by her Dad, and given the name Azlin Starr McGary. In the circle was Grandpa Bartlett, Grandpa McGary, Uncle Adam, John Blair, Bishop Zac Manning, President Mark Watkins, and Uncle Taylor held the microphone. In the blessing, Andrew blessed Azlin with good health, knowledge of the gospel & of our love for her. He also blessed her that she will grow up in pure faith, and have an Eternal Marriage as a goal. It was a very sweet blessing. I was so proud of him!
Grandma Webster made Azlin's blanket. (I had a similar one when I was blessed)
Here's Azlin on the Church's lawn. I have a picture of me on my blessing day the same way. I had to take one for traditions sake!
