A greek orthodox baptism

Yesterday me and the boys went to our very first Greek Orthodox Baptism. It was a really interesting and a new experience for us. We went to support my friend's daughter who was getting baptized. There was a lot of people there to support her. I felt like a fish out of water because I didn't know what to do. I was watching everyone and looking at their body expression to see what to do next...LOL! I had no idea what they were doing because we were seated in the back and I also had no idea what they were saying. I have to say it was the longest baptism I ever been to. After the baptism they had a luncheon and it seem like forever that we were able to eat and I was starving. You can tell that a lot of people loved her and was there to support her, it was also Susie's birthday (the girl getting baptized) so it was a special event. One of my favorite parts was the food of course, I love Greek food. I am just glad that the boys were good and enjoy the music. One of the things I realized that all the Greek girls are not that good looking and you can tell who is Greek and who isn't lol. Oh another thing everyone got a gift so I thought that was pretty cool. I never been to a baptism where we got something. It was a cute vase thing that had two angels on it. Its the prettiest thing I have ever seen. Now we will always remember that we went to a Greek Orthodox Baptism.
