Good morning all...welcome to a little red, white and blue Virtual Coffee.
I have a few snippets for you this morning...6 degrees of separation and all.
Firstly though, from our family to yours Kate and William-huge, warm, loving hugs from Down Under.
What a blessing- a beautiful baby boy!
If we were really having a coffee under the Union Jack today- I'd have to tell you I was surprised, in the loveliest of ways, that the Duchess of Cambridge had a boy.
I truly thought it would be a little Princess, and that London would be bathed in pink!
In this day and age, to learn that even they did not know the baby's sex, is just a delight to read!
What do you think?
After a good stint living in the *English Countryside* {here}, and my love for London , I'm quite smitten with William., Kate and Harry!
We also share quite a few happy days- our two families!
Six degrees of separation- OK...
William and Kate were married on our youngest daughter's Birthday- April 29, 2011.
Audrey had a Royal Garden Party in our village house in England, for her 6th birthday.
It was all bunting, Union Jacks and blow up Corgi's - bathed in perfect English sunshine!
Then we moved home to Australia- to our little beach house by the Coast, and packed our Union Jacks away- to be brought out on special days...
Well...July 22 was that special day!
Kate had her gorgeous chubby little babe on my birthday!
Keeping it all in the family here! ;)
AND...just to tie it all up neatly before we share a piece of celebratory cake...Little Henry, George or Arthur weighed exactly what our sweet Ella weighed at birth.
CRAZY!
We are practically Royalty!
If we were really sharing a coffee, and chewing the fat over all things Royal, I'd also make you sit through all Audrey's Wedding/Birthday photos....again!
You can see the the whole gorgeous garden party here ...
What do you think?
Oh it makes me long for a week or two in our other home...our country life across the globe {here} ...
If we were really having a coffee, or bubbles to ring in the new bambino, I'd send you home today with a string of Union Jack bunting and a wee little blue cupcake...smiling all the way to the gate...
