Leina's Blessing


Leina Jean Magalei was blessed this Sunday (March 30, 08). All the Oregon/Washington families came to the Molalla Ward Testimony Meeting filling 21/2 pews. Wallen gave Leina a name and blessing, and later bore his testimony, followed by Quincy, Danelle and I. After meetings everyone had dinner at Quincy and Wallens, along with a family of good friends (a matching family to the Magalei's). Here are a few pictures. It was amazing how peaceful and enjoyable the event was with the home filled with 26 + 6 = 32 people.

Family Circle after Leina's Blessing



All the children (five families) circled within the adult circle until i said STOP. We each hugged the child in front of us. The children circled again and again so many hugs were enjoyed before closing prayer. The kids enjoyed all the attention, and so did we.

The day was amazing, relaxed and perfect family time...We are looking forward to the reunion to share this with our Utah kids.
