Edwards Clan: November 2008

This post goes out to all of you who check (or stalk) our blog, and have been saddened by my lack of posting. This is the first update I have done in almost 2 months! Yikes! I'm a slacker I know, but I just have other things that keep me busy at the moment (like a little person named Eden, and another one named Owen). I felt the need to update our blog however, considering the events that have transpired recently. Our little Owen was blessed yesterday at church. This is actually our second try at having him blessed. The first blessing date was set for October 12th, but oddly enough, we happened to have over 2 feet of snowfall that day, and church was cancelled. So we set the date for yesterday. We had Clint's family here, minus Jimmie, Kandy and Lexie who are in Pennslyvania. We also had my family here, minus Julio, Emily, Nic, Tony, Amy, Sydney, and Dante. Here are some pictures of our snow (that is all melted now), and some of the blessing.

Four generations of good-looking guys! The Abrahamic Covenant at work.

As you can see, Owen looks very dashing in his white tuxedo (thanks to Derek and Keli Andersen). However, shortly after arriving at church, I was conducting Primary and my mom held up Owen and there was a large poop stain on his cute little white tuxedoed bum. Don't worry though Keli, my mom washed it out, and Ana took it home and threw it in the dryer, and was back in time for the blessing, so all was good!

Also, call me crazy, but Eden was an angel for Halloween. I know that it's kind of an oxymoron to be an angel for Halloween, but I thought it would bring some Holiday joy to the otherwise dark and spooky holiday. She made a pretty cute angel too, but I don't think anyone can top my brother Tony's Buddy the Elf costume!

I also thoroughly enjoy the next pictures. The first one is of Eden reading to Owen, and the next ones are of Owen getting a face painting job. Yes, I let my 2 year old paint the baby. Not intentionally of course. That's what I get for leaving her alone with paint for 2 seconds. It was pretty funny though.
