Last Sunday we had Aubrey christened in the Methodist church we got married in. It was such a special occasion - Aubrey looked beautiful in her gown and bonnet and she behaved wonderfully. I got her a special gown from strasburg children, it was beautiful! I am hoping one day her baby will be able to wear it. We were a little nervous about how she would do throughout the service but she was perfect. After the christening she sat in my lap and slept through the remainder of the service! She did wake up towards the end but she entertained herself by playing with grandpas facial hair. Bitsy and grandpa stood up front with us, while my grandmother and family friends sat in the first pews. Afterwards we all went to lunch at Fearings downtown.
Even though we didn't make a big deal of it, it was a very special day for us. We are so grateful that our close friends and family were there with us to celebrate Aubrey and share the moment. It felt good to be surrounded by people that love us as a family and who will also love and share in Aubrey's life.
