LIFE IS LOVELY: Layla was a princess for the day at her christening
and live on Freeview channel 276
The weekend wasn't only special for the Royal family but for us too as we celebrated the christening of our baby girl, Layla Tracey Lovely.
Our family and friends gathered together at All Saints Church on Boldon Lane for Layla's celebration and it was a joyous occasion for us all to welcome Layla into the world.

Layla's day was made that little bit more special as her christening gown was made from my wedding dress and she was complimented all day on how gorgeous she looked in her dress and how well behaved she was.
With the party taking place at Harton Westoe Miners Welfare and the sun shining it meant the kids could spend all afternoon playing on the field and tiring themselves out leaving the adults to sit back and enjoy a few drinks.

Layla was in awe of all the attention she got and it's lovely to see how loved our kids are by those around us and we can't wait until the next family party.
I'd like to thank all of those who came and celebrated the special day with us and for all the gifts, money and cards we received.
Layla is going to enjoy a shopping spree with all her cash!
