The Baptism
















Yes it was a very special day for Antonio's dunking - we had a lovely service with fabulous weather surrounded by family and friends. Antonio and Alessandro were angels during the service and Nino did not even seem to mind getting sprinkles in the middle of it.





There were two babies Antonio and Fionna and the babies were even mentioned often in the service once as a joke - "Antonio and Fionna" either some high brow literature or the start of a mirimax film - which does sound too true. We did have three Godparents this time - Michael, Michelle and Chrissy which is great because this time we will need even more help from these perfect selections. After attending the prep class on Saturday think we were all filled with new ideas and thoughts on the occasion which made it very special as well. Father Andrew did a good job and we even managed the "baptism outfit" (not a dress of course) with few issues which was great. We had 24 people at the church and four little ones which was perfect. Evelyn was the official photographer of the day - many thanks Ev, but we are still collecting great photos from all over. Everyone was so kind to share their weekend and travel so far to be part of our special day. We have lots of photos to share and lots of thank yous to write so please stay posted. Many thanks - XOXO
