A day in history.

A special day in history, the bride and bridegroom look amazing, I am trying to convince my fiance he should wear a similar outfit!
Seeing all the people waving union jack flags reminded me of this photograph of my mom ( on the right) and aunt waving theirs in 1953 for the Coronation. Brilliant.

A little fairy in the woods.

One bank hol weekend gone, a bbq, a walk in a bluebell wood, Olive loved it!! and 2 boot camp sessions done, hurrah!
1 to go before the next big event...the royal wedding!! ooh what her dress gonna be like...? which celebrities are invited...? I cant wait!! :)

Happy Easter.

As a teenager I spent most of my Easter Sundays at my best friends house where her mum would traditionally make a huge buffet of delicious home made curries and scatter eggs around the garden for the younger children to hunt, this card is in memory of Sarah.
Happy Easter everyone :)

Flamingos!!

Aah man life is so crazy at the mo, it was crazy before Olives arrival and now my head is constantly spinning as I slowly get to grips with it all, constant doctors visits, 3 and a half months of sleepless nights and trying to keep up with my work, my website is sooo close to being finished!!
We went back up to the midlands this weekend to visit relatives and friends which was super hectic and along the way I noticed properly for the first time these rather cool flamingos donning my father in laws bathroom, very Miami chic!!
