Roman’s Baptism

Over the weekend, we had Roman baptized. It was a little, intimate ceremony with only our immediate families in attendance. Afterward we went to a nearby restaurant for lunch. It is such a rare joy to have both of our families gathered in one space. Roman’s cousins are his favourite and having all of them in one room made him beam with excitement.

We decided early on to keep the day very simple. I kept the decorations to an absolute minimum. I blew up orange & yellow balloons (leftover from his birthday party) and strung up an orange bunting. I picked wildflowers from the forest behind our house that morning and made table centerpieces of tiger lily, fern & miniature daisies. I also brought along yellow & orange paper straws — because it’s just not a {Dena} party without paper straws.

It was a special day and we are very grateful to our family who were kind enough to join us & celebrate our sweet boy.
