Love Comes Down for Christmas

Yesterday was a beautiful day. I get a little teary-eyed thinking about it. Our baby, is getting married in a few short weeks and her sisters planned a wonderful Winter Wedding Tea for her. It was perfection down to the last detail. April and Cathy you are amazing women. With so much going on in your lives and a scant 5 days before Christmas you managed to turn the Bride-To-Be into a Princess for a Day!

Two beautiful hostesses ready to serve tea!

Some of the festivities!

Oma won the Amy Quiz!

Mother and Daughter sharing a moment!

The beginning of a new Tradition, made by Oma

Cups from Granny from Amy's Grandparent's travels in Canada

Cathy's uber-talented cousin, Nicole made this lovely purse containing necessities for the big day, including a wee drop of Vodka! This is what the purse looks like inside, so beautiful. Nicole said to her Aunty Silvana, "look when you open it, it's like a party inside!" So very true, Nicole. What a lovely purse! It just so happens that Amy and April both travelled to Paris several years ago to visit their friends, Vicky and Dan!

"Just so happened....Green Apples!"

The only "man" at the shower, my great-nephew, Jacob. He made the rounds with his Granny, my sister, Madeleine, and then Aunty Laura.

My beautiful niece, Riki and behind her, Amy's future in-law's. So nice to finally meet Leya, Tyler's Sister, right, and of course his wonderful mom, Marilyn!

This is the only picture I got of Jacob's momma, Angela!

To think, had they planned this lovely day for Sunday rather than Saturday, it wouldn't have been possible with all of the snow. It was meant to be, just as Amy and Tyler are meant to be and this shower is just the beginning of the lovely journey.

Clean up and leave taking!

2 very important men in Amy's life, her Daddy and her Future Mr!

The Bean Turns One!

Our youngest granddaughter, Courtney Elizabeth, also affectionately known as Coco-Bean officially turns one year old today. We were delighted to be able to help celebrate this momentous occasion, in what we all hope and pray of course, will be the first of at least 90 more, but it's just something about a baby's first that is to be celebrated and rejoiced about.

Only immediate family were present (we really missed Aunty April and Uncle Nick and Cousin Abby) and Cameron who was off partying with a classmate for her birthday, and our dear friend and Coco's Grandfather, Earl.
