Briggs Blessing Day (Weekend)!

We had a fun and busy weekend! We decided to cram a baby blessing and a Christmas party all in one weekend. All of Todd's family came down for the Mullen family Christmas party on Saturday. Before we had dinner and exchanged presents, we played the "Amazing Race". It was pretty intense at times, but was LOTS of fun! We had a lot of laughs! Todd's brother Kevin and his family ended up heading home that night and couldn't stay for Brigg's blessing because Lillian (his little girl) got sick. We sure missed them and wished they could have stayed. Todd said it wasn't the same without his brother Kevin.

My family also came on Sunday to be here for Brigg's blessing. It was nice to have so much family here on Brigg's special day! Todd gave Briggs a really nice blessing. Todd is an amazing husband and dad. He is always in tune with the spirit and I am so thankful that he has the priesthood and honors it. He is a great example to all three of my boys - -I still can't believe I have three boys!!! :)We didn't get the best pictures because of all the commotion but Briggs looked handsome! He is a cute little guy and we are sure loving him in our family. Briggs I love you so much and you have a special place in my heart. I am honored and lucky to be your mom!!!!


We of course had to get the Mullen grandkid's tradition picture that we get at all the baby blessings. It is a big enough chore getting all the kids together, let alone getting them to smile. You can tell they have lots of fun together! We missed cousins Lillian and Isabell in the picture.

We had a great weekend. And thanks to everyone for helping with all the meals. I couldn't have done it without your help!
