Blessing Of Little Brother

On the 19th Denver got his names blessed and presented to god and his relatives. Denver got baptised on the beach of our family vacation house in Finland. Great grandmother Mummi, great grandfather Ukki, Godfather Ramin with daughters Lova and Wilda, Mummi, Grandfather Houshang, Unkel Michael with daughter Isabella, Cousin Chris, Grandmother Margaretha with boyfriend witnessed the ceremony. The priest was Jyrki and I must say he did a great job. He was more of a funny friend then a stiff religion man. It took about 15 minutes and ended with a song from a tape recorder (a child sang a song). Everything was done in finnish so I of course I didn´t understand a thing. I guess I have to learn finnish soon. We missed Aino. We do hope she´s feeling fine.

Sadly my big camera broke..! Yep, it did.. so I couldn´t take a single photo.. well actually I could take 1 photo and then it broke. I will get some photos from grandmother Margaretha and unkle Michael since they had their working cameras with them. I did take some before and after photos with my cellphone but it´s not very good. It´s a 5mb pxl but that doesn´t really matter in cellphones. I´ll post/change/add some photos after I get them.

Other things of interest...It was Denver´s first summer in Finland. Milton played in the "ball ocean room" on the boat for the first time. Milton ate at McDonald´s for the first time. Milton also bathed in a blown up pool for the first time. The first piles of sand was laid. We ordered 10 more piles for next summer. The start of the house development begins this year. About half of all trees on the lot will be cut down later this year. We used Viking Line for the first time (a ferry company). We bought a DVD player for the kids, to use in the car.
