On Sunday May 3rd we blessed Nate. It was a special day and it was such a blessing to share it with family! We had church at 11 and we just about took up most of the center section of the chapel. If everyone would have made it we probably would have! Nate was an angel baby throughout the entire meeting EXCEPT during the blessing. He screamed throughout the entire thing. The second it was over he was happy again. Stinker. Krista helped take some notes for me.

*Look to the scriptures for answers and guidance.
*You have parents and family that love you very much.
*Your Father in Heaven will guide and direct you so you can live up to your potential.
*If you are ever uncertain, listen and obey to the scriptures and follow the inspiration you are given.
It was a sweet meeting with a couple other family members bearing their testimonies on top of Dan and I. I loved when Anna got up and with such pride she said, "My name in Anna, and I am a Burkholder!" We just love our families and the amazing support they are to our family. Afterwards we headed to the house for some food. We made a Cafe Rio style buffet. There was tons and tons of food and it was so good to spend time with family. It is always a crazy day but I am so glad we get to have family come see us and get to come see part of our life here in Clinton! We usually go down south so it is fun to have them here. Nate is such a sweet little guy and we are so lucky to have him in our family!
