Sunshine




We didn't have a lot of sunshine around here yesterday. My 'baby' cousin was getting married at 2pm- and luckily the rain clouds stayed away for her.

I wanted to use her photo today- so I'm stretching the word slightly. Family are definately what bring sunshine into our lives- most of the time. Gemma was one of my little bridesmaids when I got married. Since my cousins started having family of their own- we haven't met up so much as there are just too many people to have in one house. Unfortunately this side of the family- because they are that much younger than the 'older' cousins- don't really see that much of each other- weddings and 18ths!!!! I see the 'older' group of cousins- as their children belong to the same dance/acting groups and we meet up at the recitals and they also keep in touch with my parents regularly!!!!! It's a shame that we don't see more of each other- and there were lots of 'We must get together more'!!

This was a stunning wedding. We were only invited to the evening reception- but my parent's were at the whole event. It was held at a place called Nailcote Hall- and has it's own golf course and leisure facilities. It really was a beautiful wedding location. Apparently Gemma and Roger were taken off in  a golf buggy for photographs in a scenic location- so a lot of the guests didn't get to take that many photos!





I thought these flowers were beautiful- they filled one wall of a house I spotted- so is my photo for 'nature'. Unfortunately the photo isn't sharp- but didn't realise until I uploaded it.

  6. Love those flowers.. and yes I agree, it is going to be up to us 'cousins' now the oldies have got too old to organise.. we did a Polish wedding a few years ago and the bride and grrom went off to a castle for pictures a few days after the wedding, no pressure, no waiting guests.. good idea, esp as we tagged along and saw a nice castle and gardens!

  7. Lovely photos. All my cousins are at least 10years younger than me and spread all over the UK so we rarely see each other. On the flip side two are in touch on Facebook now.
