    Just had a fabulous day at the christening of my great niece Isabella. What a happy baby whoever is holding her she laughs, even when the vicar poured the cold water on her head, she giggled! A very happy baby and a lovely day for everyone with a good lunch afterwards!

    She had her great grandmother there as well so four generations present!
