Royal Wedding Day

Last Friday was a big day in our house. Royal wedding day. Prince William and Kate Middleton were getting married. I AGONIZED over which station to DVR overnight so that I would get the best coverage (I didn't love wedding day enough to get up at 3 am....I do have my limits). Although I was tempted to set my alarm just to get up, see THE dress, and go back to sleep!

Grace has worn the same outfit pretty much all of the last week, and woke up in it again this morning, and it just so happens to be particularly fitting for the royal occasion. Grandma gave her these fancy jammies last week for Easter. She has jazzed them up "Grace-style" with a pink shrug, fluffy pink dress up shoes, and a pink tiara that says "Princess Grace."

Watching the unbelievable royal wedding crowds. Note the pink tiara on the table.

 My favorite thing about having two early risers (three if you count my crazy 4:30 am waking husband), is that they love to crawl in my bed and snuggle in the morning. It's one of the best times of my day, even if it's just for 5 minutes. On this day, Grace came wandering in with her fancy shoes and tiara in hand. She seemed to sense it was a big day! We cuddled for a few minutes and watched the vows on TV, then as I got breakfast ready, she was literally glued to the set. So sweet. She was awestruck...kept asking if we could go to London to meet the princess (A recent Disney trip has jaded the princesses are unapproachable idea).

Kissing the Princess...awwww.

As if on que, just as the beautiful new princess and her prince stepped onto the balcony, my little princess had to go plant a kiss on the television set. I just love her sweet little dangly feet. I think all of us had royal fever this week. Who doesn't love a good love story?
