Reuben's Christening!

I can't believe how quickly this day came around and I remember booking it back in February!

We had already sorted godparents and the food (the night before) so off we went to St Bede's Church in Basingstoke :)

It was a very busy event with 5 other children being baptised into the catholic world, we had a very good turnout for our little man and it was such a lovely day, the sun was out and everyone had a good time!

The service was lovely and Father Rutledge is such a warming man, we were quite nervous as we do go to church on Sundays but this is something you want to make sure everything is in place and nothing goes wrong! It was nicely organised as each family had 3 benches to seat guests and it is usually parents and godparents who are seated on the front bench. Each family took their turn which was nice as it was a personal touch and Grandad got some nice shots of it. 

We ordered some sandwich platters from Greggs and got some snacky bits for the after party - as soon as we got back to my sisters little man had passed out it must have been all too much for him :)

I would like to thank everyone so much for attending and to the godparents especially as you are all awesome!
