Will and Emily's 'Wedding'

Last weekend we were invited to celebrate Will and Emily's wedding up Warrington way. They married a year ago, in the US, and were overdue a party over here. As a transatlantic couple, lunch on the Sunday (yes, that would be the 4th July) carried a mild American theme, hence the red, white, and blue necklace sported here. I'm not sure who's actually wearing it - I think they both are.

The party on Saturday was a great opportunity to wear a nice dress given to Marisca by grandma and grandpa. The dress turned out to be only half of a two piece set, being accompanied by a hairband. It's worth noting that Marisca doesn't have a great deal of hair, which is perhaps why she looks a bit dubious here. Elspeth won't let me put the hairband on her any more. She thinks it looks silly. I think she may be right.

Two more of my favourite shots of Marisca with her mum and dad:


And being in Warrington on Saturday night and on Sunday lunchtime (the clues were all there folks) implies that we stayed away. First night away from home, and Marisca and her parents coped admirably, even if she did look a little lost in the cot provided. Uncertainty over how we'd do led us to the anonymity of the Premier Inn (who were very good) rather than the more usual cosy B&B, but she is sleeping so well at the moment that there were no problems at all over night. And we didn't leave anything vital at home. All in all, mission accomplished!
