In the morning I went with Sasha to Dry Bar to get our hair down. It was so fancy there and they did a great job but it was raining when we left and my hair sucks so it was destroyed before we left for the Christening. I also popped to visit my one stop shop for all my catholic needs: ST. Patrick's Cathedral Store. Then we headed out to drop off the cake to the hall and off to the church where we made it there well before the star and his parents did. The Christening was lovely, then we headed to where the reception was. Things started off pretty tense there because it was well into the afternoon and everyone was hungry but the food was not being served. People were eating the few chips and pretzels on the table. Sasha and I made the mistake of asking Karen when the food was going to be served and she was like 5 and we protested (it started at 3:30) and she lost it so we were all in foul moods. When I finally started mingling with people they started asking me about when the food was being served and every time i tol them 5 they would say I nominate you to speak with them about doing it now. SO it was everyone that wanted food. I am sorry but you don't have an even that starts at 3:30 then serve food 90 minutes later, especially when the reason for the event required everyone to a church at 2. People expect food within 30 minutes of an event starting. Luckily I think enough people complained and we got to eat at 4:45 and everyone became much more cheerful. Baby James is adorable and so well behaved. Everyone loved the cake. I am just sad that by photo time the cake had been destroyed slightly by the little monsters of someone else in attendance. Eventually when it came time to cut the cake it was like a massacre.I couldn't cut it fast enough and there was no cake left at all!
Later after we got back I went to Dylan's birthday at Characters.
