Still got some wedding fever...


I can't believe the wedding was only a couple of days ago. Feels ages ago.
I bought Hello! Magazine today and some of the photos are amazing. Feels like I'm there watching it again.
Hope you all have a lovely May Day! The weather is fantastic. X

It's a nice day for a white wedding

Yesterday was the day we had been waiting for. The day which had led to months and months of extravagant preparation. The ROYAL wedding of Will and Kate.

I remember when I was younger and I really couldn't be bothered with any sort of royal occasion. My parents would watch the weddings etc and I was just bored.
How times have changed. Kate and William are our generation.

Yesterday we felt part of history and the atmosphere in Trafalgar Square was indescribable. Simply amazing - I will never forget it! 

Kate looked beautiful and it was so sweet when William told her in Westminster Abbey. 
Pippa's bridesmaid dress was also gorgeous.
And THE TREES - I was dubious when I saw photos of these being put into the church earlier this week but now I love the idea of them! 

It was also clear to see that the wedding really was Kate and William's day and not simply another royal wedding. They looked at ease and I think that was lovely.

My sister and her friend came down to watch it with us - we have an allegiance towards Kate seeing as we live 5 miles from her home in Bucklebury. 

So here are some pictures from out experience of the Bank Holiday and the festivities. 
Hope you all watched the wedding and enjoyed the day off.
Don't forget it! XX

Long time, no see.

Yesterday was beautiful weather wise but also a great day spent with a favourite of mine.




Everyone meet Scott, my boy of 4 years: 




Today we finally saw each other after 3 months apart. It was quite spontaneous and a nice surprise as I thought I wouldn't get to see him for another couple of weeks. We have both been busy with uni work in different cities which has meant we haven't been able to see each other.





We spent the morning in Windsor, where people are going crazy for the Royal wedding next week - Will and Kate's faces were everywhere. Windsor is one of my favourite places to visit and because Scott lives really close we go quite often. It is just so quintessentially English.





We then spent the afternoon at a lake which is being used during the 2012 Olympics and is also really quite pretty.




Scott has also decided to name himself the 'goose whisperer' and they did seem to love him as shown by the photo below. 




Today was just a lovely day to catch up! One of the best days I've had in AGES...






Sorry for the lack of the 'learn something' series. Yesterday was such a lovely day in itself that I decided to leave the lessons for next week.




Enjoy the Bank Holiday and Happy Easter! XX
