Preston's Blessing

While in Utah surrounded by every single member of our family we blessed Preston. The chapel we did it at happened to be the same chapel that Matt was blessed in when he was a baby! It was a beautiful evening and fun to spend it with so many family members. We even had a friend from Seattle in town that was able to come.

Preston Peter's namesake!
