It was such a nice day. Will was very good during the service, was relatively quiet and even gave himself a round of applause at the end. Our minister Tony did a fantastic job and my sister did such a lovely prayer. Glen's brother, his wife and my sister became Will's godparents, so it was a very special day.
Here we are up the front, Will being held by our minister Tony.After the service our close family and friends came back for lunch and a little celebration.
I kept it as a simple blue theme with different shades of blue.I bought the paper bunting from our local party shop, as well as some cute blue and white stripe paper cups. I put up the white paper lanterns that I had for my birthday.
Here is my mum helping put the food out.And the lunch was very simple - a few different salads, potato bake, chicken and rolls.
Here is the new godmother, my sister with her little godson. Doesn't he look handsome in his check shirt!
Cupcakes with 'W's on them.
Christening cake my friend Emma made.
Here we are cutting the cake, it was chocolate, yum!
William certainly enjoyed it!
And I made these personalised chocolate bars for the guests to take home.It was a lovely day all round.
What did you get up to on the weekend?
