I am getting really excited too! My Grandma and I used to walk down the Mall to go and watch the Trooping of the Colour and I wish I was over there. I love the pomp and ceremony and can't wait to see the dress and the Kiss! and for me all the horses! I Love, Love, Love your decorations, how could he not??? The Cottage will cinch it for sure!

Have a great night :-)

What wonderful memorabilia me and my neighbours although not having a street party are still stupidly excited, the whole nation is buzzing and very proud to be British.

Very cute...love the china, don't you think that tea tastes so much better in fine china?

I love how you got ready for the big day. I think the cake will cinch the deal with William. They are a lovely couple, and they looked so beautiful.

Cute post! hee-hee. I can't believe he went thru with the wedding and wasn't knocking at your door. And that is a really neat pillow. Looks like a lot of work went into it.

The cottage absolutely makes it. :)

Hope you had fun! I watched it live (which for me was the middle of the night) - thought they both looked wonderful.

I see William never called you... What a shame - had always hoped he'd get together with a friend of mine... Love your post - super sweet and this American wished she was near your place to see for myself your treasures...

I do like the trouble you've taken to celebrate the royal event. I just somehow think you've left your run too late to bag William!

Too funny. I just finished reading a post on Dottie Angel moments ago, then moved on to Creative Jewish Mom' blog, who linked to you as inspiration for her granny square bunting. I look at your post and think, this is so like Dottie Angel.... And so you are. Small world, but nice that we smile at the same sweet things all the way round it. I hope you enjoyed RW as much as I did (had to watch it twice).
