Sadhbh's Christening

Sunday was a big day for Sadhbh as she prepared for her baptism. Tadhg and Sadhbh spent the previous night in baba's house whilst mom and dad went to the annual Halloween fancy dress party at the Croatian hall.Uncle Ger had flown in for a few days to step into his role as godfather and everyone was delighted to have him over.
Sadhbh wore the same Christening outfit that mom had worn for her baptism and was draped in a shawl her grandmother had sent over from Ireland. Mom and dad marvelled at their beautiful little princess. Tadhg also got dressed up in a fancy shirt and pants. The ceremony was in the same church and was performed by the same priest as Tadhg's baptism over 3 years ago. Sadhbh was a little superstar through the whole ceremony, laughing and smiling her way through it without a tear in sight.
Afterwards everyone retired to the Croatian hall for a post ceremony celebration. Family and friends joined the celebration to make it a special event for everyone. Sadhbh was the star of the show and spent time with everyone at the party. After a while she grew tired and needed a power nap to recoup her energy.


Mom and dad were delighted to be able to share this milestone in Sadhbh's life with so many family and friends and were thrilled to have Uncle Ger and Auntie Kay as godparents.
