Marguerite's blessing weekend

The little Magpie was given a name and a blessing at our church on March 25, and we were blessed to have lots of family in town for the event (29 people to be exact). We loved visiting with everyone from out of town and were sad to see all of them leave.

All the men that participated in the blessing.

(I don't have as many pictures up here as I'd like because for some reason my iphoto rejected all the horizontal pictures from this import. Persnickity little computer.)

People keep asking what we're calling Marguerite. The answer? A little bit of everything. She's been called Sis, Sissy, Maggie Rita, Maggie Rita-Ruth, Magpie, Marguerite, and of course, Pillow.
