Matt and I were trying to decide what to do for Thomas' baby blessing because we wanted to be with as much family as we could, but it was hard for a lot of our family to travel to us. Finally we decided to go down to Mesa and even though it was a short trip we loved it! We flew down an Allegiant flight which Thomas did great on! I was so grateful. I really didn't want to be one of those families that everyone secretly hates because their child is screaming the whole time.
While we were in Mesa we walked around the Gilbert Temple, ate at Roy's Hawaiian Fusion as part of restaurant week (fancy and delicious), went swimming (in the hot tub) right before a big storm hit, and had a big dinner with our family and friends after being a part of an incredibly special blessing.
I am so grateful for such wonderful family and friends who are so supportive of our new little family. I am especially grateful for a loving husband who is a worth priesthood holder and has blessed my life so much. I love that he's mine forever and I LOVE that he loves being a dad to Thomas. He's the best.
