Blessing

We blessed Colby in June. Colby was able to wear overall shorts that his Grandma Karen made for Erick 27 years ago! He looked so dang cute! I am so glad he was able to wear the same outfit as his daddy! I bet Karen was so happy.



Before Erick's mom, Karen, passed away, she had started a few baby quilts. For some reason or another, when we cleaned out her house we didn't end up with any of them. When I figured this out I was very upset about it.

Debbie Hone (long time family friend to Erick's family) finished this quilt that Karen had started and gave it to Colby the day he was blessed! I almost started bawling when I opened it. It's been kind of hard not having Karen around. She loved babies. We know she was able to play with Colby before he got here. It was so thoughtful of Debbie to keep those unfinished quilts and finished them for us so Colby could have something that Grandma Karen made.
