Caitlin's Christening

The girls had a really big weekend which included going to Caitlin's christening on Sunday.

Dad was honored to be there as her god father. It was also really good to catch up with her family. We had lunch at a restaurant and then went back to Caitlin's house and both the girls had a swim in the pool. Brooke love jumping into the water, even though she knows that she can't float - Brooke is the reason why pool fences are mandatory. All up a great day.
As a side issue, attending the christening was most likely the most exposure to religion that the girls had experienced. There were lots and lots of questions which Dad did his best to field. Brooke, obviously, didn't take any of it in but she enjoyed all the singing. Courtney on the other hand tried to interpret what was going on. I think she might have been a little confused by it all - Every answer raised new questions. Still, an event worth mentioning.
Working backwards, On Saturday the girls went to yet another "new park". That must mean that they have now been to every park within 15kms of home. This one was up with the best of them - it was like the duck park (because it has duck) but it had 5 slides, two side by side so the girls could race each other - we'll be going back there soon.
