| Another eventful month, with Rafferty's
christening on the 6th. This took place at St Thomas' church and was
a joint service with Annabelle Groombridge who became our goddaughter,
while Jo & James returned the favour for Raffy. Ruth & Nathan,
Zanna and Dave also became godparents. It was a lively time, with
a big family gathering on the evening before and a great party at
the Red Lion in Stodmarsh afterwards. |

When my Mum & Dad came down for the christening, they brought
Rafferty's Xmas present with them - this is Rufus, a huge Steiff bear
for Raffy to cuddle. |
The christening itself, on 6th January 2002 at St Thomas Roman Catholic
church in Canterbury.

Granddad Mike giving the boy another present - having the christening
at this time of year meant it was almost like having a double christmas. |
Being thoroughly spoiled - sitting with his new bear and grandparents
Jayne & Mike Horton-Szar. |
Eddie having a laugh with his grandson, outside St Thomas' church
just before he went inside to be christened. Rafferty was still quite
bemused at having to wear a dress for the occasion! |
