“All because two people fell in love…”

Lots of planning and perfection went into last nights party which was to celebrate my parents thirty years of marriage (what a milestone!) The weather was perfect, the lights were wonderful, food amazing and the guests were fabulous.

We couldn’t have asked for a better day – the only thing that would have finished it all off in the bestest way was if Grandad could have been there. However he had lots of visitors throughout the weekend which was more than we could ask for! (I just realised I don’t have a photo of my parents together on the evening – here’s a few lovely guests instead!

Cream tea was in abundance at three PM with a splash of Pimms available for those who wanted it too. The scones were amazing and there were so many!

The evening was great, a little chilly for August but the Fire Pits kept us warm and the lighting later on in the evening warmed the garden up slightly. The BBQ was amazing, thank goodness a caterer was brought in though because there were many hungry mouths to feed and lots of prep to do! The tidying up…..not so fun ;)

My parents didn’t want gifts and asked that anyone who wanted to, put a donation in the tin for Alzheimers UK and a charity walk that my sister is doing. We raised over Β£200…. amazing, incredibly generosity from everybody involved so thank you for that as well! If you would like to donate please visit this page.

And bless our little Maisy who didn’t last the evening, choosing to curl up inside on the sofa by herself…

We went out for our annual christmas gathering with the girls (and now boys too!) so Maisy was entertained by my parents (and Buddy) for the evening. She’s thoroughly exhausted and I didn’t even think about photos until we were about to leave after picking her up – so I snapped a brief photo of my parents very beautifully decorated dining room… I love it! More ‘official camera’ photos of the decs will be appearing in the next few weeks of course!
