Good Morning! Off for my first stint of the month at the Information centre.

Married at a hotel a few miles away, so we had a large coach to take us to the venue and then again to bring us home. Lots of fun as you can imagine coming home. So many very merry folks, but, happy. A card  made for Freya on her first appointment as Bridesmaid. Even added her touch of purple at the back.
