Royal Wedding

I guess by now some of you know that this Friday is the Royal Wedding and most of the country has been given the day off :) 
I personally want to thank them for deciding to get married if only for the day off ;) A lot of people over here are trying to pretend that it is not that big a deal but in reality lots of people are quite happy & excited. I am one of the happy people.  I'd say this is one the nicest things that has happened since the big recession.  Everywhere you go there are flags & pictures of Catherine & Prince William.  Various merchandise items & dinner parties.  Hubby & I are hoping to go to my mum's to watch it. We are planning a "British Style Afternoon Tea", so there will be tea, scones with cream & jam & little sandwiches & a little drink so we can toast the couple.  I have been taking photos everywhere to share with you all. 

Hope you enjoy the photos.

I wish both Catherine & Prince William a happy, healthy & long life together.

Lily,

  1. Hi Lily,I cannot wait for Friday!I sat through Charles and Diana"s wedding and will do the same for this one,I think Kate will look stunning!
    We have Queen Elizabeth coming to our city of Cork soon,though I do not think I would get anywhere near enough to see her!
    I love all the merchandise for the wedding too and the street parties all over the country. Hopefully the sun will shine! Enjoy!

  3. Sounds really festive. I'm guessing there will be quite a few watchers here, too.

  4. Hi Lily! I am very excited for something as special as this wedding. It is a bit of romance and a fairy tale in such a hard time. We are having a special breakfast and dinner in celebration.

    I am glad you finally got your package. I wanted to mention that I found the magic washcloth in between the seets the other day and had to laugh. I hope you don't think I am crazy, lol. I will send it to you in another package.

    Have a glorious day and I will be thinking of you tomorrow!!
