Mum & Dad's Ruby Wedding Anniversary

It was a special anniversary for my Mum and Dad last Sunday. They celebrated 40 years of wedded bliss on 17th June, the day after Soph & Del's wedding. It was a lovely day, all the family got together and we went out for dinner in the evening to celebrate. Jack and Adam kept us entertained! Drove to Ayr the next day for some fresh air and fish 'n chips followed by ice creams at the beach. Delicious!

Sophie & Del's wedding

It was a lovely day at Shieldhill Castle, near Biggar. Soph looked beautiful in her dress and Del wasn't bad in his kilt either!! We got pampered the day before the wedding, having manicures and pedicures (Brave woman after us spending 6 months walking around in flip-flops!). Was fab being involved in Soph & Del's big day and they looked so happy! Everyone enjoyed... can't believe it's all over... someone else get married soon!

Soph in the City, London

We hit London for Sophie's hen weekend celebrations. Sex in the City was the theme and we had plenty cocktails, posh frocks and dancing... it was fab! Went to Sugar Reef for dinner and drinks on the Friday. On the Saturday we went on the London Eye, did it in style of course, in a champagne pod! In the evening we went on a dinner cruise down the Thames, Sophie even got to sit on Mr Big's (the captain!) knee. We danced the rest of the night away at the Rock Gardens. On Sunday we kept our hangovers at bay by going for a tasty brunch before going our separate ways.

The weather was sunny and warm in London, felt like being on holiday again! Had lots of fun being tourists in Covent Garden and sightseeing on the Thames. Was great seeing everyone after being away and I got my roomies back for the weekend - I've missed you guys!! Looking forward to the big day now.

Back in Scotland!

Well I've been neglecting my poor blog for the last few weeks, betweens catching up with everyone, applying for jobs, going on hen weekends and wedding stuff, not to mention waitressing shifts at Frankie & Bennys.... the joys!

It's great to be home in Scotland, even if it is a little colder than what I've been used to. I was met by my Mum, Dad and Stephen at Edinburgh airport (no-one's changed a bit!) then caught up with the rest of the family at home. Was greeted with balloons and banners, brilliant! Jack and Adam have grown so much! And Margaret is looking fab with her bump, not long till my new niece or nephew arrives in August... getting excited!

Managed to make Kirsty & Kevin's wedding and surprise everyone, their faces were a picture. Kirsty and Tracey looked gorgeous in their dresses and Kevin was dashing in his kilt! After an hour it felt like I'd never been away!

Hoping the weather gets warmer as my tan is fading fast. Think I left it in Cape Town!
