Turner's Special Day

Turner was baptized this past Sunday.

We had our families come up to help celebrate this special day.

Sadly, my sweet brother was unable to attend.

Surprisingly, the day was not as chaotic as I thought it may be!

We decided to keep the lunch menu simple:

We put a store bought ham in the oven, Macaroni & Cheese in the crockpot,

and had green beans set on low while we were at church. 

Then, we simply carved the ham and put rolls in the oven when we returned!

The whole family before the service

Thank goodness, this giraffe kept Turner busy for most of the service

He loves Pastor Dennis

The dining room table set

I did julep cups of roses and greenery at each place setting

A close up of the flower... Blue hydrangeas, white roses, and white poms

The kitchen table

I have to get more white dinner napkins monogrammed

I did not have enough for all the place settings, so I had to pull out the

green ones with blue monogram that I usually use with my Spode plates.

It still worked though....

The big arrangement set on the kitchen island.. we set the food around it

His yummy cake made by Your Perfect Cake in Greenville.

Strawberry with Buttercream icing.. my husband's favorite!

Turner didn't get any cake, but I let him have a small sample of the icing

Clearly Turner was more interested in the cake than smiling for a family photo
