May seriously flew by. I can't believe it is June already! May started off with a busy weekend. The BYU rugby team, after a completely undefeated season, played in the national championship and won (for the fourth year in a row)! It was a close game, with lots of suspenseful moments. Kyle played extremely hard and had some awesome hits. We are all so proud of him!

The next day (Sunday, May 3rd) was Paul's blessing day. We were grateful to have so many family members there for this special occasion. Derek blessed Paul that he would have a strong mind and body, that he would feel the Spirit and be able to apply the atonement of Jesus Christ. He also blessed him to listen to the counsel he would receive throughout his life and use it to draw closer to God.
After church, we had a family dinner at my grandparents' house. We were lucky to have two awesome photographers (my Aunt Beth and Derek's Aunt Jean) so we really got some great photos. And the view from my grandparents' backyard is beautiful, so that helped too. :)

That was probably too many pictures for one post, but there were so many good ones that I just couldn't narrow it down any more! Thanks Beth & Jean!
I'm glad we were able to share Paul's blessing day with you and have everyone come here afterward. Great photos!
