Our Royal Wedding Tea Party.

I was the same age Eva is now when Charles and Diana got married. I'd love it if  the girls and I could be in London for the Royal Wedding. I'm not a royalist by any means, after all, the funeral of Princess Diana created a national day of mourning out of my graduation day. I do like a good excuse for a party though.


I know, I know a Royal Wedding Party...really? Well we're not having a street party to celebrate. After all, the last memorable thing that happened in our neighborhood was the time I reversed into the neighbors fence. Still, the girls were born here and I want them to acknowledge the enormity of the day. Whatever camp you fall in, you have to admit it's a what-were-you-doing-on-the-day kind of event.

So instead of throwing in the towel and calling it a normal Friday, I've decided to hold a Royal Wedding Tea Party. Girls in princess dresses and plastic tiaras, Mums with cups of tea or champagne. I've splashed out on Union Jack bunting and good old English cake and biscuits. Whether you’re crazy about royalty or just sort of looking for an excuse for a tea party, make your April 29 a day to remember.
