Tessa was born 2 weeks before Cora and they were planning to bless her in Utah in June. So we asked if we could piggy-back on the event, since the family would all be together. It was a wonderful day! They were blessed in the Canyon View 7th Ward in Orem. Grandma and Grandpa Willardson were speaking that day and Carly, Halle and Olivia sang a pretty song with TJ accompanying them. The Willardson's took over the ward that day!
Darin performed the ordnance for Cora and Trevor for Tessa. In Cora's priesthood circle there was: Great Grandpa Bruce Hurst, Grandpa Dennis Cosby, Great Uncle Randy Hall, Great Uncle Jason Hurst, 2nd Cousin Eric Hurst, Grandpa JD Willardson, Uncle David, Uncle Troy and Uncle Trevor.
We had a good amount of people come from both sides of our families. I am sad we never got a picture taken of the Willardson side.
After the blessing we went over to the pavilion located between Orchard Elementary and Canyon View Junior High. Between the Willardson clan and the Smith family (Aunt Rachel's side) there were tons of kids to play with. They food was super yummy. We are so grateful for all the people that put together the food and making the day so special.
Troy somehow was picked by Heather to have a cake smashed in his face. We are still a little confused about that one. ;)
Grandma cuddles are the best...
My dad was the only person from my family who showed up for the luncheon. My mom got really sick and Darin had to get her a prescription. She went home with my Aunt JoAnna and Uncle Randy to rest. But I think Grandad enjoyed the food...
The Chidester's dropped by later after they attended another ward where they were speaking. It was fun to have them meet Cora Jane and visit for a while. We were even able to feed Matt's rumbling tummy!
I was able to take some pictures of Trevor and Rachel's family at the luncheon as well.
