Owen’s Baptism!

The reason I was invited to visit France & the reason my friends were there was for Owen’s baptism. On Sunday, it was finally baptism day and it was quite a big deal. We all dressed up for the event and headed to the church. I don’t speak French, so I couldn’t really tell you a whole lot, so just enjoy some pictures of the little guy & his family! 😀

After the baptism, back to the hotel for the reception with delicious traditional French foods, and of course plenty of wine & cheese:
