Brecon Beauty

We spent this weekend in the beautiful surroundings of Brecon in Wales for the wedding of my cousin Greg and his now-wife Katie. Katie looked absolutely stunning in her dress and the day was just fantastic with family, friends, a hog roast, choir and hillbilly band which we danced to into the early hours. They're an amazing couple and I can't wait to celebrate Christmas with them!

Hen Weekend

As their winter wedding approaches, tomorrow hails that start of my cousin's fiancee's hen weekend - which is a first for me. We're going clay pigeon shooting on Saturday which should be highly entertaining, but hopefully it's in the blood as my brother is an accomplished rifle shooter. So mentioning our feathered friends, above is a snap of Mrs Thatcher looking just as proper and aloof as her namesake! They're laying one or two eggs a day between them, so we're never short!

Sixty

This year we have some big celebrations in my family. On Thursday it is my maternal grandparents' 60th wedding anniversary and in September it is my Dad's and uncle's 60th birthday! Through the creation of cards and invitations, these gorgeous photos have come my way...
