Hi Everyone
What a Weekend we have had with Nana & Pops celebrating 50years of marriage and our lovely Fay and Ben getting married on Saturday!
I will start with Friday which was a lovely meal in the Maypole at Tiptree with all the family. Plenty of Elvis being played as mum loves Elvis! It was a most enjoyable evening but we couldnt stay too late as Fay had to get back for her big day!
Saturday morning we all had our hair done and make-up by the fantastic "Two Donna's" The first Donna that done all our hair was my Bridesmaid when Pete and I got married and the other Donna with Melissa is from Cinderella's in Wickham Bishops who superbly did all our make-up so we looked gorgeous!! Then it was get dressed and off on the Big Red Bus to Church, which was most enjoyable and it caused quite a lot of attention in the little Village of Goldhanger. We waited for the bus to go back and pick up Fay, Pete and the bridesmaids. How proud did Pete look with Fay on his arm walking down the Aisle....it is a moment that I will never forget! Being that he was worried that he would not be able to do it...he did marvellous and with no limping...yay!
The whole day was perfect in every way with the sun shining down on us. The rest of the day went with ease with Pete starting of the Speeches after the first course (as Fay knows her dad loves his food and wouldn't be able to enjoy it all if he had to wait to the end) Right up to when Ben and Fay had their First Dance, which then led the band into "We Are Family"
Later in the evening Olly got up and sang a few songs for his Sis and new Bruv, which for us its a normal thing as this is what we have always done from day one.....If there is a party someone gets up and has a sing-song!!! Thats us!! It was such a great day and evening and now Fay and Ben are on their Honeymoon enjoying a lovely relaxing time in the Sun!!
Then on Monday it was my birthday and I would like to say a big Thank-You to all you lovely people for sending me Birthday Wishes. Its very kind of you all to think of me and I'm very sorry that I have been a bit quite but I have had a lot on my mind and not been that very well as you all know I have a neurological disorder and some days are worse then others!! Plus I don't seem to be able to keep up with Olly he is doing so much....thank goodness for the Epic Website...lol I reckon he would have sacked me by now if it was left to me to do...lol but hey i'm still here giving you a personal touch even if its not everyday!
Thanks everyone again, Keep in Touch, Ttfn Vickylynn
