Celebrate good times, come on!

5 years ago today we had just brought home the most precious of bundles, our 7lb 10oz baby girl and so began our first steps into parenthood.

 

Fast forward to now and we have a beautiful, petite, bright, sociable, stubborn, amazing girl. Who loves pink in a very big way. So much so i have had to repaint her bedroom from the most delightful pale turquoise to pretty pink. Everything she has received as a gift has been pink or purple (as that is an acceptable colour too). Her main present is her pink camera, but mummy still managed to get a few of her touches in too. She wore her No.5 badge to school with pride and absolutely had to wear it again at her party, then there's the knitting kit, i found some sweet little size 4 pins in our local craft shop - they have hearts on the top!! Dunelm came up trumps with reasonably priced pink gingham storage case and i raided my yarn stash for some practice wool. She was very happy. (Phew).

 Oh of course there was the cake too, the brief was a princess cake. i think we nailed that one.

But my little girls birthday wasn't the only thing we had to celebrate this weekend, my dear big Cuz also got married, yey!!

I love a wedding, the chance to get dressed up and party. And i love making things for people i love. Very proud of the way the button picture came out and not forgetting the lucky spoon for the bride. I really hope they liked it.

 

My boy wasn't left out either, he was the dapper little gent in his London icons waistcoat and the best part...we have another wedding next week so can do it all again :)
