Royal Happiness

I have to say that i am especially happy today. For one the suns out and theres nothing like a commoner becoming a princess, i mean isn't it every girls fairytale?!?!? I didn't set my alarm last night because i had the whole thing on DVR, but my body must have known because there i was waking up at 4:45am this morning. I can't even get up at 6:30 when my girls wake up. I was delighted that my body woke me up just in time to watch the beginning of Kate walking down the isle. WOW was she stunning or what?!?!? So composed so excited. You could tell she wanted to smile bigger then she did, i bet inside she was exploding with excitement. I mean i was and i wasn't even there!


The church was magnificent, i couldn't help to think that Princess Diana would have been so happy and SO proud of her son. They were calling for rain all week and this morning the sun just popped it's little head out. Hmmm, I'm thinking she had something to do with that. Did anyone else notice the way that William walks. He walks with a cute little smile and his head facing down with a little tilt up. Just like his mom did. I just noticed that for the first time today. She has to be so proud of him!

My mom told me she was feeding me back in 1981 when Princess Diana and Prince Charles got married. I thought it was pretty cool that 30 years later i was doing the exact same thing! Olivia woke up right before they came out onto the balcony to kiss. She actually sat on the end of my bed and watched, with her mouth open. I told her that Kate became a princess today and she was like, "ohhhh princess, i be princess mama?" so cute! Who knows, Ms. Olivia you may one day be a princess:)

I thought the service was beautiful, the Priest had such a wonderful sermon. There were so many things he said that made so much sense, i couldn't pick my favorite. Some of my favorite parts are below, what a smart smart man.

“Be who God meant you to be and you will set the world on fire.” So said St Catherine of Siena whose festival day it is today. Marriage is intended to be a way in which man and woman help each other to become what God meant each one to be, their deepest and truest selves.


Many are full of fear for the future of the prospects of our world but the message of the celebrations in this country and far beyond its shores is the right one – this is a joyful day! It is good that people in every continent are able to share in these celebrations because this is, as every wedding day should be, a day of hope.


In a sense every wedding is a royal wedding with the bride and the groom as king and queen of creation, making a new life together so that life can flow through them into the future.


A spiritual life grows as love finds its centre beyond ourselves. Faithful and committed relationships offer a door into the mystery of spiritual life in which we discover this; the more we give of self, the richer we become in soul; the more we go beyond ourselves in love, the more we become our true selves and our spiritual beauty is more fully revealed. In marriage we are seeking to bring one another into fuller life.


Marriage should transform, as husband and wife make one another their work of art.
In the busyness of each day keep our eyes fixed on what is real and important in life and help us to be generous with our time and love and energy.

I loved the royal wedding. I would have loved being there and taking pictures. Talk about amazing pictures, WOW! I hope William and Kate have a lifetime of happiness, beautiful healthy babies and a wonderful partnership!
