Confirmation Party – The Arnar Version
[Photos from 24 March 2016, posted online 25 March. Progress?]
Today we attended the confirmation party of Arnar, the son of some friends of ours. It was a lovely party, and we had a great time. (Meanwhile, my brother Bjarni was competing in men’s physique, and he won his category! Yay for him!!!)
Usually I end up being a photographer at events like these, but since I can’t really walk about, I decided against taking my big camera. Alas, because apparently I can’t help myself, I still ended up snapping photos on my phone. (15 images total)
The newly confirmed boy with his mom and dad. His two younger brothers were patiently waiting on the side, while I snapped this on their camera.
Rewinding back to the beginning, the party was held in a congregational hall (safnaðarheimili), that my friend had wisely booked a whole year in advance! Next year is Anna’s turn, so we better start planning!
By the guestbook. Bjarki was away at the summer house with his grandparents, so he unfortunately missed the party.
Got to love a room that comes with a speaker system!

The food was very good!

Emma made do with eating fruits and candy.
Some of the sewing club girls. My front-facing camera is so bad that I’m tempted to get a new phone!
