A Name and a Blessing

This sweet little baby was given a name and a blessing on September 4, 2011. Dave did a wonderful job and the VAST majority of our family was able to be there with the exception of Elder Benjamin Fager.
Brooks was blessed to:
-Grow up in righteousness and with righteous desires
-Follow Christ and have faith in Him
-Have the ability to be true to the gospel and obey the commandments
- Be a good example to his brothers and those around him, that those around him will desire to be like him
-Have the desire to enter the temple
-Have a sense of humor that will also bless him to deal with the challenges in life
-Desire to marry a righteous woman
-Desire to serve a mission

Dave's entire family. Left to right - Tine, Barbie, Jeff, Mom, Dave, Dad, Matt, Kimi, Becky
It would not be a Crockett family gathering without a funny face photo. Zoom in for a good laugh.
The biggest brother :)

Our happy family of five. Never mind that at this point Carson was MAJORLY on one. It was nap time and he had HAD IT, you can see it in his eyes

The entirety of everyone who could attend. What a handsome group!

I also want to record all the wonderful priesthood holders who helped bless our little boy:
Great Grandpa Gabrielsen
Grandpa Fager
Uncle Richard
Grandpa Crockett
Uncle Steve
Uncle Kevin
Uncle Blain
Chris (cousin)
and of course Brooks' wonderful Daddy

*Also, a special thank you to Grandma Crockett for making a wonderful and adorable little blessing outfit for Brooks
