Gracie's Christening After Party

After the ceremony at the church, we invited all of our guests back to our home to celebrate.  We had a big Armenian spread, cupcakes, and lots of cocktails!

Bentley got a cat nap in on the way home...
 

 

 

The caterer put together a pretty amazing spread...Armenian mezza and some other delicious Armenian food...and of course Colella's cupcakes!

 

 

 



I tried for a few pics with my babes...Bentley of course had a mouth full of bread...

 

 

 

 

 

It was time for food (cupcakes for the kids!!!), drinks, laughs, and hugs.  It's was so much fun to see everyone, spend quality time with family and friends, and watch the kids play and interact (and get into the recycling)...

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

The day got later, the crowd thinned out, and the "usuals" were left...I was enjoying my pink champange after all of my work putting this day together...and the kids started to get a little crazy as it got close to bedtime.  Like we always do, we lined 'em up on the couch for some pictures of "PH12 - The Next Generation."  Hurley even came down for some action...

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

Wes made a new buddy in "Gampy Don" and liked wearing his glasses - we all noticed that he looked just like the little kid from Jerry McGuire...

And we watched young love...

 

 

 

I was in my happy place.

 

It was an awesome day!  And at the end of the night Gampy and Bentley came up to me and Gampy said that Bentley wanted him to draw a picture of Mommy, Daddy, Bentley, Gracie, and Hurley...MELT MY HEART...

Thanks to all who came to celebrate a special day for a special baby girl!!!
