What a beautiful day – for so many reasons. The sun was shining. The floral arches were in full bloom. The children laughed and played all day in the expansive English countryside. The wine was flowing and people were chatting and relaxing in the garden. Sarah and David got married today.

The Speech

Yes, we just went to England not three weeks ago for Jan’s sister’s wedding. But that was family. Sarah and David are friends. A completely different type of wedding. So we’re back. One full week at grandma and granddad’s house culminating in a lovely little wedding at Sarah’s mum’s house in Upwell (just five minutes up the road from Jan’s parent’s house in Outwell). The weather was beautiful. The garden was beautiful. The food, the friends, the family, the speeches, the cottage, the chickens(!), the swing seat, the rugby, the ponds were beautiful. The couple were beautiful.

Congratulations, Sarah and David. Here’s to many beautiful years together. Huzzah!
