On September 11th our niece Lara was born. She is my brother's 4th child, his second daughter. I am her godmother and on November 11th we had her christening at the Church in Mellau.
It was a small ceremony with only close family members. Alissia and Philipp played the guitar with their guitar teacher. Raphael did the reading and assisted the priest.
Afterwards we all headed home to Bernd and Rebecca. We had coffee and cake (lots of delicious homemade cake) and moved on to salads and sandwiches later on.
Overall it was a very nice and sweet celebration.
