Hello friends. Happy Thursday. How is your week going so far?
Vintage Swing Dress And Afternoon Tea In The Garden:
Now that lockdown rules are starting to ease it means we can now go to visit family in their garden.
On Sunday after I finished work my husband picked me up and we went to spend an hour with my mum and dad to celebrate their wedding anniversary.
Mollie The Collie even came a run out in the car with us.
Celebrating A 50th Wedding Anniversary In Lockdown:
Love is in the air! 50 whole years of it! Imagine being married to the same person for 50 years!? Over the weekend my mum and dad celebrated their 50th wedding anniversary.
If we weren't in lock-down it would have been nice to get all the family together and go out for a nice meal together. We are writing them all down for when it is safe to go out. So far my son is taking me out for afternoon tea and we have a whole bunch of birthday celebrations to catch up on.
It was touch and go with the weather and we wondered if it was going to stay nice. It was my Sunday at work and when I looked out the window at lunch the sky was dark and full of rain clouds. I think it did rain itself out an hour before we were leaving.
So pleased the weather stayed nice so we could sit in the garden and celebrate with them. Imagine if it had been raining!!
Mollie does not care if there is a party going on, all she wants to do is play ball.
Vintage Swing Dress And Afternoon Tea In The Garden What I Wore: Dress: Lindybop | Shoes: Tu Clothing at Sainsbury's
I love this little vintage-style dress. It also has sweet little butterflies and ladybirds on it.
I did keep thinking that they were real ladybirds though when I was looking down and eating my party food!! All teamed up with some flat white ballet-style shoes.
I kinda of love this and thinking of having a blonde one to cover up my grey hair from lock-down!?
Mollie was waiting by the front door to be let into the house. The back door was open just around the corner but she would not go around the back because she is used to going through the front door.
So she just waited and gave the occasional bark until someone let her in. She walked straight into the kitchen, out the back door, and waited by the front door!!
So Why Not Pop Over And Find Me On Claire Justine.
