baby dedication in the village

We just spent a gorgeous Sunday in my favorite village, an hour or so (depending on the condition of the roads) from where we live.  We traveled in a vehicle with 6 others to attend and celebrate the baby dedication for a friend.  
This little herder boy and his cows wandered past our party.

I was very amused by the fun decorations in the church, which I was told came in shoeboxes.  I think the balloons are actually water balloons, and the blue ball in the middle is a beach ball.  The white balls are paper lanterns, and seem like they'd be too big to fit in a shoebox, so not sure about those.  They put these bendy flowers on the pulpit, that was the cutest touch I thought!  Yes, a pastor preached with those smiley flowers there!


Above is most of our group with the friend.  JP and a friend brought their guitars and we shared 2 upbeat songs.

This is what it looked like.  There were a lot of visitors from out of town (out of village?) and many  village folks showed up for the event.  
 Here is the chorale with some drums and other fun noisy instruments, and the kids sitting on a mat on the floor.
