Owen's Blessing

Sunday was Owen's blessing day! We had everyone from my family and Fred's family here (actually minus 1 from each side of the family). It was a bit chaotic (19 adults and 20 kids) at times but over all it was a good day. Fred gave Owen a beautiful blessing, he's such a softy at times but I love it. Fred's highlight of the day was our lunch, we had a "HOT DOG BAR! HOT DOG BAR! HOT DOG BAR!" as Fred says! We had hot dogs with every kind of topping we could think of or that we thought people would eat. There was chili, cheese, tomatoes, onions, sauerkraut, coleslaw, salsa, ketchup, mayo, yellow mustard, brown mustard, jalapenos, etc. Fred loved it and the kids did too. I do have to admit it was kind of fun and easy. Anyway, we had a great time!

Thanks to all you that traveled to come celebrate this special day with us.

  1. Wow -- the years have not been kind to Mr. Gooch. He seems to be shrinking and losing hair.

  2. Hil, glad we were there to take part in Owen's special day! He looked so handsome in his outfit. Too bad we didn't get any pictures with him on our side of the family :( Love, Trina
