We blessed Samantha last Sunday, it was such a spiritual day for Chris and I. The blessing Chris gave Sam was so heartfelt and special. Chris really put alot of thought into it which means so much to me. It was so great to have all our family come out and support our newest addition.
Samantha Kate or 'mantha as Alex calls her.
Great Granpa and Grandma Searle, Grandma Julia, Grandpa Mont, Great Grandma and Grandpa Andrus. A four generation picture for Chris, on both sides! (How lucky he is.)

What a special day. It's so fun to see all your family get together. Cute photos.
She's gorgeous, you're gorgeous...what a blessed day!
You both are so beautiful. I love those special days, they are so great to share with everyone that we love.
Mel you look great! Samantha is beautiful, I love her little blessing dress. You have a darling family!
She is beautiful! Congrats! It has been fun to catch up with you guys on your blog. It has been a while since I've visited. Oh, and Happy Anniversary, too! (P.S. the best post-baby advice I got from our pediatrician was this: "Your ONLY job is to feed that baby. Everything else can be done by someone else." Words to live by. :)
Hey Chris - I saw your blog from Kaedi's...It has been fun to read about your cute family. Hope you guys are doing great and congratulations on the new baby girl!
What a pretty girl and such a neat day! I love hearing the sweet blessings my hubby gives to my children as well.
Samantha is too CUTE!! I love her face in the picture with Grandpa.
What a Special Day!
I need to come visit you...I will have to call Amanda and we can all get together for a play day!
Chris - just saw your post. We would love to hang out. I still have never met your cute wife! But we live in California! We'll be back in Utah in October sometime. Hopefully we can get together then! I am so happy though to be able to keep up with you through your blog. =)
I'm glad you had such a nice day! Your baby is growing up so fast! She is beautiful. You look so pretty too! COngrats.
MELANIE WEEKS! What an awesome surprise to get a comment from you. After hearing from Lisa Cannon and Brooke Sligting...I'm in heaven! It's so fun to hear from great friends from so long ago...
First of all, you look amazing, especially for just having a baby! And secondly, your girls are beautiful! Can you give me the secret to having girls? And then I'll give you the secret to having boys. :)
We miss UTAH! We almost moved back, but things didn't work out...which is ok, cuz we love it here in Dallas. Who all do you hear from/keep in touch with? Me? Not so many people...McKinley Oswald and Sean Stott. Heather Dunroe, too. Living away from home doesn't help.
Anyway...please keep in touch! This blogging thing is the better than a reunion!
Love ya!

She is beautiful Mel, Congratulations, what a special day for you all. Looking forward to meeting her this summer!
These are such cute pics...I love them and Mel you look so good! I especially love the first pic on here of Mantha by herself.
What an angel!
what a beautiful family you are! i am so sorry we could not make it to her blessing... living away has it's downfalls. We love you guys!
These pic's are so beautiful! I love the one of the girls together!
She's a doll Mel! I'm excited to see you, your house, and your babes next week!
Mel! I know, I know, I am retarded. I was so scared to drive with Claire for over 10 minutes in the car because she freaks out and I can't STAND just driving while she is screaming. She is a big fuss. Now, of course, I regret it. Especially because we won't make it to the fam reunion (Ben starts school that week) and Carolyn is always telling me all the things planned and everything I'm going to miss out on!!! It stinks.
Anyway, Sam looks SO SO cuddly and cute!
~Aloha! I Found your blog through the blogger buffet, this post is so sweet! I am due in the fall with #5 and I can't wait until this baby gets blessed. It is such a special time. Great blog!
Have wonderful weekend!
Melanie,
Hey there! I hope you're doing well with the adjustment of a new little one. You guys make beautiful babies!! I'd love to catch up if you get a chance.
~Melissa
