Today this special little great granddaughter received her special priesthood blessing to receive her name which she will be known by and a special blessing from her father, Dusty Dansie. We met as family and friends at the Tremonton South Stake building for sacrament meting with the members of the twelfth ward. This is the Dansie's ward. Those standing in the circle were her father, her grandfather's DelRay Woodruff and Brett Dansie; her great grandfather's Brad Frank and Dale Woodruff; her great uncles Dan Nesbit, Jeff Firth, Paul Wood, Todd Johnson, Sid Soria, and Danny Despain, Dan Woodruff, Brian Anderson, (more to come). Her second cousin Justin Nesbit added his priesthood power also. The circle was so large that he felt it better to give his love and support from the audience.
She was given a sweet blessing that her body could grow and be healthy and strong, that she would seek out those who would lead her in good paths, that she would desire to seek an eternal companion worthy and wanting to marry her in the holy temple. You could feel the great love and car of her sweet father as he pronounced his blessing for her. I too pray that this beautiful daughter of God will always know that ( she is loved, that she is a daughter of God, and that Families are forever in God's eternal plan.)
Ellerie is also blessed with a choice mother. Kelsey is so wonderful with her little daughter. Ellerie has had a rough start with colic. This has been an added stress for these first time parents but they are doing well.
Ellerie's blessing dress was sewn with great love and perfection by her Grandmother Tonya. I know this will always be a special memory for her.
Before I go on about her celebration party I must say something about Ellerie's aunt and uncle, MacKenzie and Nate. They love this little one so much. When she is fussy Uncle Nate will love and cuddle her and is able to calm her. Nate is a very special man. When it is time for him to be a father his children will be blessed that they came to him. Our MacKenzie loves holding this little one and getting cute smiles from her. I think perhaps these two will be best buds.
After sacrament meeting we met at the senior center in Tremonton, where the Dansie's and the Woodruffs had planned and prepared a deli sous lunch.
This was a wonderful day.
