Wildwood Blessing

We gathered at Wildwood for Eleanor Cate's blessing. It was a beautiful day, with family gathering from near and far. Thanks to all for coming, family and friends. For those of you who couldn't make it, here are some photos.

Here's our lovely daughter. It was a surprisingly emotional day for me as a father.

This is the paternal representation, Bowens and Paxmans.

And now, King and Cathy and the fruit of their loom. Norah is grandchild number eight.

Norah with her parents, grandparents, and great-grandparents.

Norah with her admiring cousins. Lily (left) has the best seat in the house. I tried to negotiate with Jenn to hold me like that and let Lily hold Norah, but we opted to forgo and capitalize while everyone was smiling.

Here's our friends, Craig and Kristin. They're part of our New York family, now transplanted to Salt Lake.
