Ruby LaPreal

{ Ruby's Blessing Day}

I just love her little hands! Ruby is wearing the same blessing dress that Savannah & Abigail wore. Lurlene (Wade's mom) made it for Savannah out of an old lacy tablecloth and I love it.


Ruby LaPreal gets her middle name from my Nonny (grandmother) on my mom's side. I hope that Ruby has her generous heart, her loving personality, and her gift for helping others feel of worth. We found out later that my great-grandfather's sister was named Ruby so I can't wait to find out more about her to add to the story of her name. It must have been meant to be.

We had friends to stand in on the blessing (Bryce & Cameron & Nate) but we sure did miss having family this time around. Sometimes it's hard to be so far away!
