Leighton in South Carolina! 8/26/09 - 9/2/09

Being Leighton's Grandmother (her "MicMic") is one of the greatest blessings I've ever received. It was absolute joy having them with us for the week and being able to spend so much time with Leighton. She is such an angel and has my heart!

As you can see, she loves her PaPa Joey already so much! She laughs at him and with him! :) He calls her all kinds of southern names like Butterbean, Rutabega (not sure if that's spelled right), and all sorts of names! Her smile melts her grandpa's heart...
It was so fun to celebrate at the lake with everyone on Saturday night of their visit. Jack's parents and brother had arrived from Idaho and Jenny's dad and step-mom were visiting from Kentucky also. Thanks to Byron and Susan for such a great cookout and party at the lake to celebrate the Maxfield's visit to South Carolina and to welcome Baby Leighton!


Leighton truly looked like a porcelain doll in her blessing dress, a gift from Grandma and Grandpa Maxfield. What a little princess! She was so sweet and quiet listening to every word her daddy said as he gave her blessing. It was such a special day.



Family + Love = Leighton Valencia Maxfield
You are so loved, Leighton. Your Blessing Day is one MicMic will always cherish.
I love you, angel, and I can't wait to see you again soon.
