On August 11th, Mom and Dad Fin hosted the most beautiful blessing ceremony for Eden in their gorgeous backyard! The weather was perfect, the setting was gorgeous and the sun was shining down on all of us with almost an angelic light.
With the greatest blessing in our life!
A few photos before the ceremony!
Sheena sang a beautiful version of "I Hope You Dance" accompanied by a lovely acoustic guitar.

Blessing our baby.
Blessings from her wonderful Godparents.
Eden did such a great job during the ceremony! She was really working the crowd! :)
Keegan performed a reading of one of our favorite storybooks for Eden called "On the Night You Were Born." It was extremely touching.
Officially blessed! :)
Proud grandparents and incredible hosts!
Eden's lucky to have these three in her life! :)

Trav's friend from IC, Kevin came to the celebration!
Eden and her Godfathers!
Eden received this beautiful bracelet from Liz and Ian. Something she will always treasure.
She also had the great privilege of wearing this gold bracelet which has been in the Lumsden/Finlayson family for a very long time. Eden's Grandma Fin, her Aunts and Uncles and even her Daddy wore it on their Christening day(s)!
Taking a stroll with my sweetheart! She wore a dress of mine from when I was a baby!
I am so in love with my family!
The ceremony was absolutely perfect. And although it was Eden's blessing day, it was Travis and I who truly felt blessed to have had so many special people there with us to celebrate in our joy!
This was such a perfect blessing, on the perfect weekend, with the perfect people!
