William's Blessing


William wearing the blessing outfit both Daniel and Carter were blessed in

Outtake #1 of group photo

Outtake #2--where did Claire run off to?
Outtake #3-notice Carter and Claire

This is the best one we got:) April, Wes, Annette, John (washed out from the sun), Heidi, Ned, Ella, Asher (in Danny's arms), Hayley, Ryan, Sue, Jeff, Danny, Sarah, Carter, Claire, William, Robbie, Laura, Eric, Sydnee and Kollin
Grandma and Grandpa Ottosen were there but had to run off so they missed the group photo, with Eric and Sydnee in this one


William and his great grandparents

It was such a great day to have our families with us (minus Jake and Amy) and to be spiritually fed at the same time. Danny blessed William and it was beautiful and we enjoyed a fun afternoon and evening together. I love the group photo because it shows how many people are there for William and will continue to be throughout his life. What a blessing that is! At the end of the night I realized we hadn't taken any photos of just us with William and Claire took some of me with William before church but they turned out bad. Oh well!

I love the picture with EVERYONE, and love how Asher only wanted DANNY on his special day, its like he knew the people at the center of attention and clung to them!

What a blessing to have such a special blessing!!!! Thanks for having a precious little one!!! Your a great MAMA!

You guys all look great. I laughed looking at the struggles to take a family picture. That is exactly why i am sticking to newborn photography. No big group shots. William looks so handsome in his duds. Can't wait to see a picture of you in braces!!!!
