Chubbers Gardner

Chubby Chubberson was given a special father's blessing, and a name last month. Mark changed his name from Chubbers to Luke Arthur Gardner.

It was such a beautiful event. It was a very special day to celebrate the new life of our precious son. I am grateful for my husband, and the blessings he has helped give myself, Russ Russ and Luke. I am grateful for my other two boys, and I am so grateful for all our family, extended family and friends that came to support us and Lukey. This sounds like a Grammy acceptance speech. Sorry.

My mother, aunts and Grandma set up an elaborate refreshment room for everyone to enjoy after the blessing. Thanks guys! It looked and tasted so much better than it would have if I had done it.

The original Arthur. When Luke was born I called Grandpa to ask if we could name Luke after him. He responded, "So you're going to name him, Luke That Handsome Devil Gardner?"

What can I say?


Thanks Missy for taking these pictures!

That was such a great weekend! I realize more each day that it's all about family! Love you guys, can't wait to see Lukey grow up and grow cuter and cuter (if that's possible)!
Love you!
