Mike Bird's baby girl, Annabelle, was baptised today. We went to the church for the 9:00 baptism. I was one of the godfathers, and had to stand there with Mike and Emelyn as a show of support. I wore my suit. (I only wear socks, long pants, and shoes that aren't sandals about once every 2 months or so. I feel like such a goon getting all dressed up now.)
After the baptism, it was over to Basamanggas Resort for a christening party and early lunch.
In the afternoon, Mike and Emelyn, and Epril and I took the extended family (and friends) up to Faustina pool resort for a day of swimming and having fun. The leftover food from the christening party served as a late lunch. Tyson came along as well, and did a very good job cavorting without upsetting all of the other visitors there. (He mostly just goes off and chases chickens and cats, but always comes back.) We had a grand time. The teens put on some hilarious innertube relay races in the big pool, and the little kids splashed in the kiddie pool.
In the evening there was rain. I stayed home and played more "Elder Scrolls" while Epril went and watched The Jungle Jumpers play their first game in the division finals. They finally lost their first game... in overtime. Apparently the other team scored a 3-pointer that should have only been a counted as a 2-pointer, and it cost them the game. Oh well. Apparently they are still in going; they have another game soon.
I certainly recognized the Basamanggas resort! How nice to be able to picture it so well. Sounds like Ebril is enjoying the team.

Thanks for commenting Mom, but I'm a little confused: What picture of Basamanggas Resort are you referring to?
ReplyDeleteit appears that your mom has been there and can picture it in her mind--like if you mention bath, new york-you can picture it. love the pictures of tyson.
ReplyDeleteBy the way, Jil, are you doing any bible study for being a Godfather to that little girl??? Isn't that part of the requirement???
