Calliope Marisol Williams was blessed on Sunday, October 19th 2008 at our home in Hartsville. We blessed her in our backyard because it was Stake Conference for our stake. We had a good number of family in attendence and a lot of good friends. Some travelled across the country and others across regions of the South to attend. We ate Fall goodies (pumpkin cookies, banana bread, Halloween decorated cookies, miniture cupcakes) and drank Lemonade. Calliope can be seen wearing a vintage 2002 dress, also worn by her older sister Marley Xiomara on her blessing day.
We blessed, we ate, we talked, and we laughed. Just the way it should be.
Below are some pictures of the event, it was certainly a memorable event!

Cute pictures!
I was so honored to be there...somehow I knew it may be my last, and I needed Calliope to know one day how special she is in my heart...
Thanks M,M,M,& J; you guys were great, too...
Very cool. Looks like a special day!
Your sweet little baby is so beautiful! I love the pictures. P.S. the reunion was in St. George. Is that where your family's from?
Mickelle! I found you! Congratulations on Calliope! I can't believe how old Marley is. Time flies! What darling pictures!
