We decided to bless Cooper and Amelia in Prescott since my family was going to all be together. Josh's mom is from AZ also and so most of his maternal side still lives there. We blessed them on January 23rd. My parents also spoke in church that same Sunday (I guess it isn't called a homecoming but you know!) It happened to be the same chapel I was blessed in 32 years earlier. I thought that was pretty cool. Josh gave them both wonderful blessings and I LOVED having so much family there!

Here is Josh's grandparents!

Here is Mom and Dad Thomson with Granny and Grandpa. Cathy made the blessing outfits for the twins. To say I loved them would have been an understatement. We used my mom's blessing outfit for
inspiration. Although they didn't end up looking a lot a like, both of the outfits were PERFECT!
Ummmm.... So our boys weren't up for a lot of pictures after church but here is our best effort at a family picture :)


OK I had to get my own shot :)

Here is the babies with Dad and the grandpas! First time my own grandpa wasn't there but I am sure that both of them were there in spirit.

Here are the amazing men that stood in the circle. We are missing my brothers Jason and Brett who didn't go straight to my parents after church. It was a big circle full of AMAZING people! From Left to right: My Uncle Joe, Rick
Mangum, My dad, Cooper, Josh, Josh's dad, Amelia (lucky girl!) Glenn
Foulk (Josh's grandpa), My Uncle Rod, Clint
Rucker, Rustin
Mangum.

And my adorable perfect little sister. Doesn't she look like a natural? I think it is her turn next to have twins :)

Yes yes I do have the cutest babies on the planet! And yes those are the cutest blessing outfits ever made.

Cooper showing off his special one of a kind shoes, and tie and pants that match his twin sisters :) Except he has blue flowers where Amelia has pink... go figure!

I can only take credit for the
bracelet and the flower in her hair. Otherwise it was all Cathy. This picture doesn't do it justice. I think we may need to do another
photo shoot... twist my arm!

I don't think it took my mom too much time to fall in love with her 16
th and 17
th grandchildren!

Again I was in a Black and White mood today but isn't this picture priceless? It happened to be the most perfect day. We sure were blessed to share it with so many friends and family.
