Micah's Special Day!

Micah Russell Owens

We had a WONDERFUL day the day of Micah's blessing day! He was dressed special from head to toe and then some! My mom made his beautiful gown - it even had an "O" embroidered - my favorite touch this time! His Aunt Elizabeth made the most adorable shoes ... and they were perfect - and his Aunt Charity made a beautiful blanket! The blanket was a little warm for this time of year - but I am thrilled to take REAL pictures of him with his gown, shoes and blanket ... well - SOON! We had the blessing of having so much family come - we live about 1-2 hours from most of our family now - although we did have some travel a little further! Thank you for making his day so special. We had a special little lunch after as well - although he didn't eat too much -- he got the "seconds!" Here are a few of my favorite pictures - although we did take individual family pictures as well!

I love that everyone is your family helped make something for him and that so much of your family was able to come. That group shot looks like almost our whole branch, lol! Micah looked so sweet in all the pictures and I love the family picture. :)

Great family pictures. I can't get over how stinking cute little Micah is. He has the sweetest face, lips -- the works. Do you think he looks like Benjamin did as a baby or does he have more of his own look? Sometimes I see a lot of Harrison in him (like your brothers and Laura)...
