This weekend was PRECIOUS, FULL of absolutely fantastic family time. Blythe and Joy sealed the deal on making it the perfect weekend, shocking us all by BOTH rolling over for the first time... within one minute of each other... and we caught part of it on camera...
Today was so, so special as our official day of dedicating our youngest girls to the Lord.
We had a wonderful peanut gallery of family there at the church and at my mom's after for a delicious lunch (thanks everyone for such yummy dishes!) All the cousins on the Elliott side after church!
All the cousins on the Gross side...
We have the unique honor of having two heirloom christening gowns that are both around 100 years old. Joy wore her great great grandmother's christening gown.
Blythe wore her great great grandmother's sister's christening gown (that would be her great great great aunt's gown!) I wore this same dress when I was dedicated.
And yes, we had to have dedication Sunday cupcakes- dark chocolate with Sprinkles' recipe for strawberry frosting! Very easy and seemed to be a big hit!
Thank you to our precious family for loving our babies and making this weekend so wonderful!

Hahaha! What an adorable video... I love the "you can do it! I know you can!" voice in the background. :) Precious, precious memories.
How perfectly beautiful. My goodness your girls are impressive. Ellie didn't roll until she was 4 months. And now she'll only roll onto her tummy. Weird kid. LOVE the gowns. What a treasure.
The girls looked absolutely precious in their gowns!
What a precious day!! I love the gowns- how special!!
