Jubilee Festivities

We have had a great long weekend of entertaining and fun. Sunday we had a lovely family get together, Monday old friends were visiting the area so we were able to get together again. Tuesday was our Stake Jubilee party, only the weather didn't play nice over the weekend but what is more British than enjoying ourselves in the rain and queueing for food (barbequing for over 200 people is not easy). There was a cake baking competition that had some fabulously creative entries, glad I didn't enter actually, my cakes taste great but wouldn't have looked as great as some of the entries.  Now we need a long bank holiday in bed to get over it!

The Barbeque Kings!

A bit of colour is always good

The grounds were looking very festive with alot of nivce bunting as well

Some of the cakes

Taking the Cake judging very seriously

This person didn't want the cake to be judged and brought it in anonymously gorgeous!

Still taking their job seriously!

Jubilee Weekend

It's quite wonderful to be here in England and living some history. I have Jubilee'd up the house and invented a verb. Of course the weather has changed now it is holiday weekend and half term, what did I expect! However a four day break is never a bad thing. I collected Anastasia from Cardiff and the first stage of her belongings, we were very lucky with the traffic. She has one more exam before her summer break. For now though let the barbeques begin!!!!!
