ABBY'S BLESSING DAY



















This was such a special day. All of Jason's family stayed with us in the house. It was quite the morning having everyone there getting ready. There is nothing that replaces the sounds of family being together for a special occasion. Jason woke up early that morning and made breakfast for everyone. He is such a good cook, husband, brother, son, and dad. The whole family was ready to go at 10:30, church started at 11:00. Aunt Jennifer helped to get Abby in her blessing dress. The blessing was beautiful and simple. We had a luncheon with our family and friends afterward. It's not a Jensen get together without delicious food. Jason used his smoker and made ribs and brisket. They were so flavorful and tender. We had grandma Jeannetta's baked beans, and grandma Susie baked three different cakes, Texas chocolate, White with strawberries, and carrot, all of wich were devoured with not a crumb to be picked at afterward. It was such a good time to get together as friends and neighbors to visit and celebrate the birth of Abby.
