Prior to witnessing the baptism of your twin niece and nephew, it’s important that they start the day happy.
It’s also equally important to fill up on bottles of adult beverages in preparation for a Christening celebration (that, and the fact that you didn’t start on fire upon entering a church).
Be sure to add personal touches in decorating by displaying pics of those near and dear holding the babies.
Food is essential when celebrating babies being dunked in holy water, so have a nice spread.
Play kissy face with one of the guests-of-honor when she refuses to go down for a nap (not wanting to miss out on any of the fun…taking after Auntie CBXB!).
Keep the cocktails flowing with an open bar, new mom and tasty beverages.
Have a camera in hand at all times to catch each and every second of the day drinking celebration (you’re doing it for the babies, of course).
All of the photo snapping will make you very thirsty, leading to a case of the double fists.
Force your dad to try drinks unknown to him (which would be anything other than Natty Light and Taaka (rot gut) vodka).
Once the party is fully underway, keep the chips and dip within an arm’s reach so as not to starve due to over consumption of wine. Or beer. Or vodka. Or Captain.

Rehydrating with sodium filled potato chips and the best dip ever Anderson Erickson French Onion (one of the best things in Iowa!).
To further the celebration, break out the cigars!
Partaking in cigars when one usually doesn’t smoke leads to the party clock striking midnight and lights out…almost immediately.
One can try to sleep the Christening party off the next morning but sometimes you forget that babies get up at the ass crack of dawn. No. Matter. What.
And excitedly remember that babies also tend to only sleep, eat and shit the rest of the day. Score!
And that folks is how you thrown down at a Christening.
Bless your heart.
