Blessed twins

On Sunday, February 18th, we blessed the twins. It was a great experience. Both were awake and calm during the blessings. I was very nervous, but the blessing were very sweet. I kept my eyes open during both blessings and both of the girls listened to me and watched me intently as I blessed them. It brings me to tears whenever I think about it. I felt a very strong connection to them during those moments. I know it will always be one of my most treasured memories.

Mom & Dad, Kevin & Melia, Scott & Rebecca (and kids), and Chad all came down for the blessing. I was so glad they were able to be there for my babies' special day. Dallas & Craig also came from LA for the blessing. The Friday before we all (except Chad) spend the day at Disneyland. We had a great time and the girls did very well. We also took advantage of double stroller passes with our stroller and Rebecca's.


Nadine found a new favorite game for our PS2. A little over a year ago Nadine bought a PS2 in order to play Dance Revolution. She bought the heavy duty arcade style dance pad. Well Scott brought Guitar Hero 1 & 2 with their 2 guitars for the PS2 and now Nadine wants to get it. I must admit I enjoyed playing the games too.

After the blessing we had a barbecue at our home for friends and family that had come to witness the blessing (I know that that may seem weird for those of you dealing with snow during this time of year, but we do live in southern California).

It was a lot of fun although a little stressful. We were a little concerned that we might run out of food, but we didn't. I was most pleased that all the little girls loved playing in the nursery with some of the toys and thing that we have collect for our girls as they grow up - especially the toy tea set. It confirmed for me that we are getting things that girls love to play with.
