Just family...grandparent, aunts, uncles, and great grandparents were present...
James wore a long white gown...even though Daddy thought boys should not! We bought his gown at the same place where we bought Elsie's gown..."One Small Child". Our hope is that we can give each of our children a special gown so someday they can have their children baptised in the dress...a special heirloom to pass down...
We choose to have my sister Laura to be the sponsor for James...
James, Grammie and Papa Wayne after the baptism...James baptism day was also Grammie's 50th Birthday...a special day for both!
After the ceremony everyone came to our house for lunch, cake and visiting...I love having our house full of people...
It was a terribly hot day outside...and eating outside was much cooler than indoors!
Lots of people, good food, laughter and memories...
A little sandbox fun for the kids...
James was a super good baby all day...he fell asleep during the ceremony and throughout most of the lunch...so sweet...
Since everyone was all together we took lots of picture...the whole Ostrowski crew...just a small family!
Grandma B. and Patrick with the kids...Elsie was hot and pooped out and did not want her picture taken at all!
After most of the people left we remembered to open gifts...we are terrible at remember to open gifts...as it was we almost forgot to serve the cake! Sometimes things just get to busy...
James had a lovely baptism day...surrounded by family...
