Tradition... Dedication on Mother's Day

The boys were both dedicated at church on Mother's Day, and today we continued the tradition and dedicated Gillian to the Lord on Mother's Day.  A large number of family members joined us at church this morning to give us support in raising Gillian up in a Christian home.  The church service was very nice and we had a brunch following the service at Aunt Heidi's house(thank you Aunt Heidi and Uncle Andrew!!!).  Here are lots of pics from today!  Most of the pics are of my precious kiddos, which I am so thankful for on this Mother's Day!  I am a very blessed momma!!!  

Dedicating this sweet girl was a little emotional for me, as I am just so honored to be her mommy and have her home with us!  Sometimes I look at her and I just can't believe how blessed I am to have such a beautiful, wonderful daughter!  Gilli is so precious to us!!!
Yeah, family pictures are next to impossible, but here we are at church!
All dressed up and looking so pretty!
She was in the best mood all day!
Striking a pose!
I'm so funny!!
Another failed attempt at a good family pic!
Oh, they just keep getting better!  We are happy, though!!
This little girl loves her brothers so much she even loves when they squeeze her cheeks!!
