Our big event

Wow, what a weekend! We packed up and headed north on Friday (in two shifts - I think Daddy enjoyed the Friday evening trip all on his own!) and enjoyed a weekend of rather warm weather to celebrate the marriage of my sister and her lovely man. Everything ran smoothly, my girls did I great job as flower girls, and everyone looked gorgeous.

All the girls of the bridal party (7 in total) enjoyed a 'girls only sleepover' in lovely Federation accommodation on Friday night. And despite me making a few alterations to my girl's dresses before bed on the eve of the wedding (!) we were all set and ready to enjoy a lovely day.

Now the happy couple have gone away to enjoy a well-earned break, and the girls are back at school telling everyone about the 'best day of their lives'! Judging by their excitement and anticipation, developing the photos and taking them to school will be the second most exciting event of their lives.

And my first born, Sarah, is now officially 8 years old and had the biggest birthday party she will probably ever have! All the guests sang 'Happy Birthday' to her at the reception - it was all very sweet :-)

Now, back to some sewing, gardening, baking, knitting.........

......but first a little bit of housework before school pick-up!
