Yesterday was such a special day!
Baby Cali was blessed and it coincided with my 31st birthday!! It was truly a magical day!
We had lots of family come into town to celebrate with us, and it was a beautiful day. Mark did such an amazing job with her blessing, the spirit was so strong and we both were so emotional before, during and after the blessing. We were both teary even through the opening song of sacrament meeting, usually I'm the one with the watery eyes!
Here are some pictures to show off Cali in her blessing dress.
She was really giving us a show for the camera...what an angel she is!
Mark and my parents with baby Cali, Mrs. Brown and Bryanna
Uncle Casey and Aunt Katie came down for the blessing. Casey is Mark's buddy from the mission, and he is more like a brother!
Here's the whole gang!
Pres. McCracken and my Nana
Sister McCracken and my sisters and nieces and nephew 
DD and her kids, we love them!!
Maddox with his favorite person in the whole world...his Mimi, and my neighbor growing up who watched us to help my mom out while she was working...Mrs. Brown, a saint sent to my mom! Mrs. Brown is 86 yrs old! She will always be a part of the family.
Beckie & Jared 
Older, Wiser...another year gone by. Yesterday was so wonderful, I feel so blessed to have Cali in our family and we know she is loved so very much. I know the Lord watched over her while I was pregnant with her through all the complications. It is such a relief to know that she is healthy and strong, and perfect!

Stacy, you look fabulous in those pics! And I'm sorry the family photo wasn't perfect...that little guy in the front couldn't look at the camera!! :)
P.S. What a bad friend I am. I kept thinking I was going to take you out for your bday and then we both had major family events that week and I biffed it. Forgive me! Maybe we should just go out to a movie and dinner this next week?!
