Paul's christening went really well. We had the baptismal ceremony on October 28th at Our Lady of Calvary church by Rev John Paul. Aunt Jaime and Uncle Kevin are Paulie's godparents. The mass was really nice and Rev John Paul had such a great personality, he was so nice and cracked a few jokes during Mass which made it pleasant. Sean and Colin got to stay seated with us which was different. The boys liked sitting with us and they got to interact with the baptism. They got to stand around us for the actual baptism and they also got to come up on the altar for the blessing. After the ceremony was over we headed to our house for some dinner and drinks. The food was great and everyone seemed to have a good time. It was much easier doing a smaller party this time. We really did miss having our Aunts, Uncles & Cousins with us but, having a smaller party was more personal and a little easier for me to prepare. I want to Thank our families for helping us out and making Paul's Christening such a special day.
Moving onto Halloween. The boys LOVE halloween! Sean could not wait to get dressed in his costume. We started the day off by going to Sean's school and watching his class parade around in their costumes. We came home and got our things together then headed off to Mom & Dad Fell's. We had dinner, Mommom gave the boys their treats and then we got everybody ready to trick or treat. We got Sean Patrick dressed as a Police Officer, Colin was Dennis the Menace, and Paulie was a scarecrow. They all looked so cute and Sean & Colin liked being dressed up. After we got situated we then headed to my Mom & Dad's to trick or treat. The boys got a ton of candy, after we did most of the neighborhood we headed back to the house and I had some of my grandmother's beef stew, it's everybody's favorite winter dinner! I was glad the boys enjoyed Halloween but I was sad it was over because now comes the craziness of Christmas! It'll be here before we know it!
P.S. We just heard the exciting news that we're going to have a new cuddy!! :)
