Had Helen’s parent’s Ruby Wedding Anniversary party here yesterday, and a good time was had by all. Weather was looking wet and dodgy, but as forecast it dried up and the sun popped out at 12 as the first guests were arriving. It stayed dry until quite late so that was good. Helen’s mum was stressing quite a bit about the weather as she so wanted it to good enough for us all to be outside.
Was plenty of food – mixture of homemade and Waitrose Entertaining stuff (no we weren’t buying it) – which was pretty good.. Been quite a lot of preparation gone into the whole thing, so glad that it all went smoothly. Usual sort of eating, drinking, family catching up, chatting, laughing, kids playing, photo snapping, chillin‘ , sort of gathering.
By the end of we were absolutely knackered. So rather a shame that BB decided that once SB had gone to bed (rather late and very tired at about 10.30 – 11) she would wake up and wail and gnash and fuss for the next two hours…… 
Plenty of photos to sort out, so have just posted a few as a taster.
